When you say worst what exactly was worse about it. Accuracy recoil chambering what makes you say that it's the worst.



Recoil???.....from x39?, no it was the worst in terms of accuracy.Not by a large amount but worse nevertheless, particularly in 54r.

So what kind of accuracy are you talking about.

Just curious I don't use milsurps ammo of any kind in any of my toys. I choose to reload for my 7.62x39 and 7.62x54R I would never use military stuff in any of my old Girls. I use PRIVI/PPU bullets they work for me. I do grade them but other than that they are fine.
I shoot them in .308. 7.62x39. 6.5x55. .303. 7.62x54R. The MAS36. etc etc. I don't shoot 1/2" groups but I'm happy with the results I get from my reloading bench. So at 200 yards what kind of group would you expect to get from your milsurps ammo.

I used to get Barnaud ammo from Pete Lawman, not sure if he's still in business?
