Malaysian Surplus and PPU 308 Question
I have seen it a decent prices lately and have a few semi auto 308s that need feed. How good is this stuff for plinking?

It's excellent. I just ran through another 40 rounds this morning. Reliable, reasonably clean, consistent in the rifle.

Buy with confidence.

Who's got the best deal at the moment? I should pick up some more.

Thanks for the tip. The Malaysian is NOT reloadable. It is non-corrosive, brass cased but Berdan primed.

I'd buy PPU new all day over Malay or any other surplus.

You can get the PPU 308 for just over 50-cents a round, which is good enough for me.

Then again I'm shooting it through a SCAR 17. If I had a cheaper 308 blaster I'd probably try the Malay stuff.
