Has anyone ever reloaded Prvi Partizan 7.5 ?

[Babarsac]

I'm looking to get into reloading for my K31. It's the only surplus rifle I own whose ammo cost the most. I've never reloaded before but I kept the brass after firing a box of Prvi Partizan 7.5-Swiss. The brass came out still looking pretty clean. Anyone ever use this stuff to reload or is there another source I should look to?

Prvi brass seems to have a good reputation, I'd give it a try. Be sure its boxer primed first.

I have loaded Prvi brass in 7.5 swiss. It is boxer primed and reloadable. I get excellent accuracy and the brass seems fairly consistent. A couple of things: the primers are much more difficult to seat with my Lee hand primer; I don't know why. I'm guessing the primer pockets are a little snug.

Also, the brass is not as soft as other brass such as lapua and winchester. Thus, I have annealed all the necks of the brass to soften them. See 6mmbr.com for instructions on annealing. It's not hard at all. Good luck.

works just like any other brass. i use it for tracers and such in .308. plus if you already have it on hand then you can't beat the price. reload it until it wears out then get some more. not sure about the comments on it being hard brass. on the 308 and 300WM i have gotten, the necks were annealed at the factory. and the head rubs off on the bolt face in my savage as the chamber is really tight. i have never had that happen with winchester or lapua.

Here are my reloads using prvi brass and prvi 168 hpbt bullets. It's good brass and so are their bullets.
