IGMAN 8x57 Ammo

Yeah, I know this is an ammo topic; but, I posted this topic in the "Ammo Reports" spot a good while ago, and didn't get any responses......So, I'm going to give it a shot in this spot. Anyone tried this Bosnian made IGMAN stuff?

I didn't want to place an order before finding out something about it (like ballistic/load data and such). It has a brass case and is loaded with a lead core, copper jacket 170gr bullet, but that's all I could find out. I searched the web, read shotgun news backwards, and sent some inquiries to companies that sell the stuff, but got nothing back.

A couple of days ago I stopped by my gun dealer's place and he had a few boxes on the shelf. He didn't know anything about it either. I bought a box. It has no info on the box. It looks like decent stuff, but I still do not know what level it is loaded to. I don't know if it is loaded to U.S. commercial standards or to something like a Norma load.

Any ideas? I need a chronograph.....
