Prvi Partisan and Accustrike .38 Ammo <$14 for 50, Any Good?
Anyone have experience with the 130gr FMJ PPU (Prvi Partisan) in .38? Accurate? Clean? The price is excellent on a few websites, $13.50 to $13.95 for 50 rounds:
Prvi Partizan .38 Special 130gr FMJ 50rds PP-R3.31 - .38 Special - Handgun Ammunition - Ammunition
Has anyone tried Accustrike reloaded ammo out of Utah? I have read good things about it and the prices are phenomenal...$13.38 for 50 rounds of 158gr FMJ Nickel Cased .38 ammo. Velocity figures were not listed on the website, so I called them...it is loaded pretty hot, 915fps.
Ammunition - 38 Special - High Country Ammunition
I also see some Armscorp 158gr FMJ around for $15 for 50. Anyone ever shoot that?
Would love to hear from anyone who has experience with either of these brands of ammo. Or if you heard a friend of a guy you know has a mother who used it once, I will take that to

Don't know anything about Accustrike, but I've shot lots and lots of PPU and I must have at least 500 rounds on the shelf. It's reasonably good, average in terms of accuracy, consistency and cleanliness. I like it better than WWB or Remington green box, not as well as S&B or Federal.

I've shot PRVI Partisan PPU through my 1911, S&W revolvers, and even my hunting rifles and its never failed me. I think its the best value in ammo at this time.

Privi Partisan has been very good ammo for me in these calibers, 9MM Luger, .38 Special, .45 ACP and .222 Remington. The brass is very good quality for reloading too.
Armscorp ammo is generally quit good too. Never shot their .38 Special, however their rimfire and .45 ACP has been quite accurate.

PPU in 9mm,38 special 130gr fmj and 158 lead round nose and 45acp in both revolvers and pistols works great. Brass is good to go as well, shoot some of the military calibers as well and the rifle brass is good for reloading. Frank
