It has the word "Pakistani" in it... that should be more then enough to scare most shooters away......... I'll pass just on the country of Manufacturer......

While i have never shot it myself it is generally considered to be a "don't buy" around here.  


I think Templar put it best with ~"I don't shot ammo from countries that still piss in their drinking water"


Get some of the Aussie battle packs or the linked Port.   Both are considered to be good surplus ammo.

I shot several hundred rounds this weekend in a fal I bought from Centry cheap.  All fired.  Nothing fancy.  Not great and not bad, but shot resonably well.  If its cheap I'd by more regardless if they piss in their drinking water after all there is still a lot of that here in the US.

I gurantee that they are pissing in there water in Gutamala and Malaysia and both those ammos are considered good ammo. Dosent sound like a real good way to judge ammo to me. Plenty of Piss in the water of South Africa as well.

I have  shot a case(1000rds) of Paki 7.62, headstamp  POF 80 L2A2. Was 100% surefire, burned clean, and was excellent plinking ammo. About 2.5-3" in my 308 Saiga, which will do 1" with handloads. Also worked great in my M1A with similiar accuracy. Some cases were heavily tarnished, but cleaned up well.  Is non-corrosive also.  I would buy more if it is available. It had none of the problems of the OFV 98 Indian had.

I guess there has been some response from those who have NEVER used it with NEGATIVE comments. Them feedback from those who HAVE used it with POSITIVE feedback. Hmmmm. Thats one thing I don't like about this forum, U always get some Jackass with a comment who has no experience with the given topic.
