    ddhotbot,

    Bargain noted. I've been using Prvi bullets and ammo. Had great success with the FMJBT's in the ammo in 7.65x53 but can't buy that grade of bullet from them. They are sitting in barrels in an L.A. warehouse and won't send them to retailers/wholsalers like Graf's, Wideners, etc until they order them. As a recreational reloader and shooter of the 7.65 and .303 I didn't find it cost effective to buy an entire barrel of them.

    ddhotbot,

    I agree, they should be great. However, like you said, "If they shoot like..." My problem is the 174 gr. FMJBT shot great in their ammo. They are in the US ready to be sold. The distributors won't send them to Grafs or other warehouse sellers until they get ordered. They did offer to sell me a whole barrel, but I had to open an account with them. I felt that was a little past where I was going. That's more what I meant to say. I do have some prvi 150 gr. .3105" dia. bullets that I need to load and shoot also but haven't done it so far. Too many other projects in the fire right now.

    I've been hoping someone would report on the 165 grain .308 btsp fro Privi. I've got a .308 heavy barrel that just loves those from Speer and eats coyotes way out there.

    I bought some from bigdogammo.com for my Mauser.. $9.99 per box for 7.65 Argentine !!! The next cheapest I can find is $21.99 box. I tries 3 boxes to start and loved it. The 7.65 is hard to find and not only did they have it cheap, but they had 180gr soft ponits. My 1892 Mauser loves the stuff. I'm going to order 5oo rounds now.
