Widers.com has GI pulls/PPU from time to time --pricey at times

Shriner, Its looking like it is easier to just find what works on the shelf. I shot some of these with a different load and they shot good but I think I will just stick with what I can find on the shelf. Thanks for the tip.

Where does the package say they are manufactured? I am wondering if those bullets are made overseas.
I pulled these bullets from some factory ammo. It shoots decent in the load I shoot. Does anyone know what bullet I could buy that is close to this one. I tried looking online but unless I am just not looking in the right place I cant find anything like this. Any help would be appreciated.

.308, 182grain, pulled from PPU matchline.

No part number. Here is a link with all the stats that I gathered. They are from Serbia.

They shot decent but I cant find anything that matches exactly so I will probably stick with the Hornady ELD M. Thanks for the link.

Here it is on this page. https://www.ppu-usa.com/ppu/7-62x54-r/ I figured it may be made overseas since it wasn't popping up on any usa bullet manufactures. I would see if you can find a bullet with similar length bearing surface. I don't think your gun is gonna care if its FMJ, HP or ballistic tipped if you can get close in weight and bearing surface.

I still have the ones I pulled so I can get the measurements that your talking about. Thanks for the tip.

Swingwing, that's real close to what I pulled. I bookmarked the site for possible future use. Thanks for the link.
No problem. Just happened to have had it bookmarked. Those bullets look very similar to some Russian surplus I pulled years ago and that I have hidden from myself.
