    I almost ordered these by mistake. I have a stash of the POINTED Soft point PSP that I run with excellent results out of my Maadi. The AK was designed to run spire pointed rounds which is correctly the PSP version of the PPU ammo. Round nose is a safety feature geared toward lever guns tubular magazines think 30-30 Winch or old tech 30-40 Krag. All of what I shot fed fired and ejected without complaint. Accuracy is acceptable.

    Having purchased nearly a case of this ammo at a local retailer in Boise, I have run this ammunition through a couple of weapons, both of which couldn't be any more different in nature and operation, only to find out that this round, which resembles a "mini 30-30 or 32 win " can only be best described as the best ammunition I have used commercially produced to date. It feeds very well, with NO hangups, no ejection malfunctions and quite frankly- very smooth,-even in a comparison to any other spire tip traditional "AK-47" round to date. This ammunition has not yet been analyzed for speed, etc as I did not take a chronograph with me when shooting this ammunition. I would recommend anybody that owns a firearm that is chambered for this round to try it. Very nice, indeed.

    It worked perfectly in my Yugo sks, cycled and ejected with no problems,military grade ammo

  • CHIEF said:

    Fired 500 rounds without a hick-up. Was very clean ammo that left little fowling in my AK-47. Have already ordered another 500 rounds for future range time.

  • Bosscott said:

    I bought 7 boxes of this ammo, and was surprised with the quick shipping. This ammo groups much better than the cheap foreign imported steel cased ammo.

  • Glen said:

    I need all brass to practice at my local indoor range & not much to pick from at an affordable price range so I took a shot with this & it worked perfectly in my Palmetto state armory ak47 with a magpul pmag.

  • Ed said:

    Good ammo , shoots well with no problems, on the target where i aim at 50 yards, shooting out of my galil pistol. Shipping was fast and a good price.

  • :-) said:

    this ammo (for me) allows tighter groups from 50 to 100 yards at the range.

  • JJ said:

    I like PMC Ammo for most of my calibers. Wish the price was lower.
