In all fairness with the exception of my handloads and compared to the factory stuff I tried, some of the most accurate ammo I've shot in my Yugo Mauser has been Yugoslavian 1980's milsurp ammo.

That Yugo 7.92 in very good, especially out of an M76 :good:

I did a back-to-back test with my Mosin using standard Russian Novosibirsk produced milsurp, Russian Barnaul, 174gr Sellior&Bellot and 180gr Prvi.All were shot over an hour on the same day with the same conditions etc and the standard Russian milsurp was the most accurate and gave the smallest groups......the Prvi was the worst!.

Mine is nothing fancy, just a plain old M48A but she is very accurate.
