Turk 7.62x51 Ammunition

[vintage hunter]

Anybody ever heard of this brand of ammunition? It's a new one on me. A buddy got it at the local Wally World the other day, $18/20 rounds. My wife works there so I get a 10% discount but there's a measly 3 box per customer per day limit. I looked around on line to see if I could find it comparably priced in bulk but no such luck, couldn't find it listed at any of the distributors I deal with. Box says it's made to NATO spec and claims it will group less than 1 MOA @ 100 meters. I put a couple boxes through my M1A yesterday, seems to be very consistent but I didn't get any sub MOA groups. 100 yard 3 shot groups averaged 1.5 MOA while 300 yard 3 shot groups averaged 4''. The old M1A is getting a bit grey around the edges so I couldn't complain, that's not bad for non match ammo from a rifle that never was a consistent sub MOA shooter to begin with. When I get the chance I'll run this last box through my SSA M40 and see how close to sub MOA it comes.
In the mean time if anyone in forum land knows of a source that's less than 18 bucks a box I wouldn't mind picking up a 1000 rounds.
BTW, the brass is boxer primed and looks to be of good quality.
Drats and curses, meant to cull that 4th photo but for the Enfield fans there's proof the Germans used No.4 T's whenever they could get their grimey paws on one.
