what's the deal with that 62gr stuff?  is it made to SS109 specs?

Probably not. After checking out Prvi Partizan's site it didn't say it was.

Man, that listed price for the 75 gr OTM would have seemed like a good price several years ago. It seems like ana amazing deal by today's standards. Is that price accurate? How does the PP 75 gr stuff compare to the offerings by Hornady and Black Hills?

I just received my 400 round order of the 55 grainers today.  Sealed 10 boxes per plastic sleeve.  Opened them up, headstamped "PPU 06" and "5.56x45".  Bullets have cannelures (sp?) and cases appear to be annealed, primers appear to be crimped and sealed but these things may be obvious to some, just thought I'd share.

I'm also wishing I'd have bought 1,000.  Shipping was $1 per pound from AIM to MN so my total shipped was $123.

I might get some pics up later in case anyone is interested.

My 2000 should arrive tomorrow.  I'll be set for awhile.  I'll be sure to post when I get a chance to shoot some of it

I can't speak for the 62grain stuff but the 55grain Prvi Partizan is my current ammo of choice.

I've recieved about 3k of the 55gr M193 and have not had any problems shooting it out of an 11.5" DPMS upper. I have anohter k on order now.

also had good results with the 75gr out of a 24" 1/8 upper.
