M4X Posted June 27, 2010 Report Share Posted June 27, 2010 Privi ammo in .222 is like hens teeth at the moment, the main importer has not got any at least until November? And has not had any for quite a while. Of course you may be lucky and find a dealer that has "old" stock. Good Luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildfowler.250 Posted June 27, 2010 Report Share Posted June 27, 2010 Would also be interested if anyone knows where to get Privi in .223 in Scotland ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr smith Posted June 27, 2010 Report Share Posted June 27, 2010 I did a similar post looking for a Prvi supplier up here when i bought my .22 hornet.With no success,my local shop said he could order some but i'd imagine the price would look nothing like what Kranks quote.Now going down the reloading route.

Vince Green Posted June 27, 2010 Report Share Posted June 27, 2010 Dealers seem to be very reluctant to stock priv ammunition when they have ammunition costing double or treble the price sitting on their shelves. I have sympathy with their business predicament but what we have here is the simple law of supply and demand. Without being nasty about it we should let our feelings on the subject be known. We are the customers, its our money that goes over their counters. If they think we can be blocked from buying cheaper ammo just by their refusal to stock it then their business sense it in question. My local dealer, A man I regarded as a friend for many years simply refuses to stock it so I have stopped going there and won't go back. Where is the sense in that?

bullet boy Posted June 27, 2010 Report Share Posted June 27, 2010 I won't buy any PRVI Partizan anymore.I have noticed that I have had a bad batch because they seem to be low powered compared to the Norma ammunition which use for Live targets.I have shot some of this batch only to see the bullets just penetrating my practise targets at 100 yards.It certainly seems to me that there's not enough powder in the cases when made in the factory!I bought a batch of 100 and have still got quite a few left! I'm certainly not happy so on this basis will not be purchasing anymore!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zab10 Posted June 27, 2010 Report Share Posted June 27, 2010 were game in kirkcaldy is getting privi in any day now pm me if you would like the number Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve_b_wales Posted July 5, 2010 Report Share Posted July 5, 2010 I have shot many 100's of Partizan ammo, both in 22-250 and .243. I have never had a problem with any of them. True, they won't win any prizes in match competition, but for vermin control/target practice, they are excellent. If anyone, including my mate bullet boy, has a bad batch, then they should be returned to the supplier for investigation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then return them to where you bought them, if they are inferior - they should refund your hard earned or exchange £ for £ against Norma or V shoks Les Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gixer1 Posted July 5, 2010 Report Share Posted July 5, 2010 Just bought another hundred rounds up here in aberdeenshire in 243win, fantastic rounds, and at £11.80 per box (59p/round) i'm not complaining, and one of my friends that reloads reckons the brass is quite good too! Sloans of inverurie have around 2-3000 in 243 but not sure about other calibers. gixer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have also fired 100s of Partizan .243 100gr, and also had 100s of foxes etc, and never had a problem with accuracy, I'm sticking with them. Also used in the .22 Hornet with no problems.

I'd give up on the emails and try the phone, most shops don't seem to bother reading them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
