PPU is Privi Partizan and is brass cased unlike the tula and is considered fine for a lower cost ammo. I've shot a fair amount (maybe 400 rds) or so through my P220 with no complaints.

I've used PPU in my Colt 1911s, and Beretta PX4s quite often...the 9mm and .45ACP has always been reliable, and it's fairly clean. My Colt Mustang .380ACP won't cycle Tula reliably...PPU works fine in that pistol too - haven't been able to find any of it in any caliber lately........sigh.

Re: AMMO LOCATIONS/ GUN DEALS
Cabela's has 7.62 x 39 in stock, at $6.99/20, with a limit of five boxes. Not the best price, but reasonable and in stock. Shipping to Chantilly was only $9, which beat's Midway's shipping charges by almost 50%.

Re: AMMO LOCATIONS/ GUN DEALS
PPU is decent ammo. I'm not a big fan of PMC because I reload and don't like their brass. Thus, I prefer PPU. Most UMC is junk IMHO.Riposite wrote:PPU is Privi Partizan and is brass cased unlike the tula and is considered fine for a lower cost ammo.

Re: AMMO LOCATIONS/ GUN DEALS
Dang. Well, might be worth checking later, because sometimes it pops back up when orders get denied or they cancel orders because people made multiple orders to bypass the limit.

Says in stock, but adding to cart brings up out of stock. Dang it.
