Anyone loading Prvi Partisan Bullets?

I was thinking of buying some PP Soft Point bullets, since they are available and not much else is.

Anyone have any experience with them? How accurately do they shoot? Info on terminal performance?

Any feedback helps.
 
I've fired some PPU factory ammunition and I found it was completely capable of suiting my purposes for rifle practice and initial scope sighting in at 100 yards: 100 grain 243 Winchester, 100 grain 25-06 Remington, 165 grain 30-06 Springfield. I haven't taken any game with it but a colleague in Croatia has successfully used it on game. Most terminal performance reports I've read have been complimentary on MidwayUSA, Graf and Sons, and Academy Sports and Outdoors (their house Monarch brand ammunition is all PPU headstamp).

In handgun factory ammunition I've fired a vareity of cartridges and I only had a problem with their 9mm "NATO" ammunition.

I bought 500 75gr BTHP for service rifle really cheap several years back, loaded them over 8208 and it shot just fine. Comperable to the Hornady 75bthp I normally shoot.
 
I loaded some 100 grain sp. in my .243 for hunting. I built a good load but haven't shit anything with them yet.

My rifle team bought several thousand for service rifle comps also. Used them for the 300 yard line. Fired frequent cleans at 300 rapid. I am now using the remainder of mine for feral hogs. Usually do not exit, end up sideways or backwards when cut out. For the money they were a good deal.

what gun was that fired in?
 
I have used a few in different calibers, they seem fine for some of my fire forming loads, but wasn't sure on accuracy as I wasn't concerned with that. I have heard from others the larger caliber bullets are a bit soft, so I don't believe I would want to use them on tough game, this is 9.3mm, .375 and similar diameter bullets.
