Its just ok quality russian ammo.  Usually its steel jacketed which is a little hard on barrels but itll shoot.  Usually they just laquor the primer and crimp area.

I just tried a couple of rounds last Weekend.
I needed two rounds to finish off the last magazine I was shooting, and I used Silver Bear.
The bullet drop was amazing.  From 10 paces away (about 25 feet) the two bullets went about 6 inches lower than the other rounds I shot that day.
Oh , yeah; Walther PPK in .380 ACP.

Got 1/2 case from Aim. Little dirty but functioned ok in my Oly and Bushmaster. Got HPs cuz my range is indoor and no FMJ. Heck of alot cheaper than the reload SPs they sell. I liked it but the red laquer primer sealer is hard to get off of the bolt face.. John
