Good stuff and most of their brass is made like a tank.

I do not know for sure, but I have heard that Prvi .30 carbine is made by Sellier and Bellot (kinda like Sears "Kenmore" brand is made by different people). I shoot S&B almost exclusively and love it.

Priv Partizan is NOT made by S&B. Priv is located in Yugoslavia,is the company that makes the Wolf Gold. The brass is some of the best around and great for reloading. While S&B located in Czech Republic,the brass in general leaves a lot to be desired for reloading as the primer pockets are shallow. They are the company making a lot if not most of Winchesters commercial ammo now.

Jim,
I believe it was Scott R that was trying out his new Chrono and Prvi scored high. I can't remember if it was SP or not. I printed off his results and have it tucked in a file. Will look for it if need be.

I have shot the S&B 7.62x39 in AKs, and even more of their 30 carbine. I haven't reloaded any yet, but have had zero malfunctions and great groups with the S&B in carbine. In my Ubderwood, it shoots almost the same POA as the LC I had. I have been getting S&B for about $20 a box in 500 round lots.

I tried Aguila, but it SUCKED! It shot very low due to 200 fps less than LC, and had several short strokes/failures to feed in the one box I tried. Wolf is fairly hot like S&B, but not as accurate. It grouped almost twice size what the S&B did. It was OK for plinking when it was cheap, but it is as expensive as S&B lately. I know they say the steel cases are hard on extractors, but we used steel ammo in WW2. The best I have is RP JSPs. I still have about 300-400 rounds of Remington 110 JSP. That is what I keep the carbine loaded with for a house/farm weapon.

IIRC,
No steel cased ammo was issued for anything other than training here in the states.

That 800 round can is pretty beat up too. Even if someone wanted one to add to a collection, they would look for one in nicer condition. And a lot less cost.
