I suffered a casing blow out today with the 380ACP and guess what the case that blew was a MFS the first that I shot was a PPU go figure! :o  Had I found that first spent PPU casing I wouldn't have shot the second cartridge...

I just loaded 50 rounds using PPU brass. Looks like I need to get the bullet puller out!!!

What did you load exactly?

I mean if it's mild shoot it.

If if really hot, shoot it with video running. (OK I'm kidding. Sort of.  ;D :o)

Just got back from a gun show and they had mountains of PPU at very good prices but I load all my own rounds and even pickup other people's brass and have people give me there once fired brass so I passed but it's was nice to know I wasn't missing anything by bypassing this ammo thanks to this forum.  Craig :)
Velocity if fine...Accuracy is final

Wish i had not bought 10 boxes of ppu 762x39 now to reuse the brass. Have not reloaded any yet since i sold the gun it was bought for but now i will probably just recycle  the brass. If i shoot it in my ak i will never find it, it throws heavier steel cases at least 15 feet.

RW - You might want to try loading a few rounds first. I've used ppu 308 brass for a while without any problems, but their Tokarev and 10mm brass is absolute garbage.
