    Why? You will have to work hard to find a load that is even as good as GP11, let alone better. My 96/11 is the only one of my old service rifles for which I use the original military ammunition - the GP11. To describe this as "surplus" is an insult to the quality of this ammo. Just get yourself a lifetime's supply of GP11, and you have one rifle+ammo combination which you will never have to worry about. My supply of GP11 cost me less than the components would have done, and the quality is, quite simply, excellent.
