Details

When the French replaced their trail blazing 8mm Level rifle round in 1924, they initially adopted a round very similar to the German 7.92x57 (8mm Mauser) cartridge. Eager to avoid any battlefield pick up mistakes, they shortened the round enough to ensure any chamber for it would not accept the German ammunition. It remained the primary French military round through to the 1990’s even for a time after France joined NATO. The reason was very well because the French round offers very similar ballistic performances to the .308, and logistics appeared little reason to change. The 139 grain full metal jacketed round by PRVI Partizan has a muzzle velocity of 2700 feet per second with 2232 foot pounds of energy. This is an ideal range training or target shooting round in any of the French military surplus rifles that can still be found. The adage that French weapons are always a deal because they have never been fired, but only dropped once is unfair: the French, and their weapons are well proven on many battlefields of the 20th century. Try one and see.

PRVI Partizan remains one of the most consistent manufacturers of otherwise obsolete or difficult to find calibers. This 500 round case lot is ideal for keeping the C&R examples of historical relevancy active at the range. Additionally, the cases are reloadable for extended utility for shooters of these relics.
