My father has an old 303 savage and he had been looking for ammo for this
thing for a long time, years infact. So one of his friends referred him to this
Budget shooters supply and he then purchased what he thought was
Hornady .303 savage (I didn't even know they made 303 savage at all
anymore) So the stuff shows up and i came over that day (We were working
on his barn) So i looked at it and i open the box and to my surprise instead of
of finding rounds stamped hornady on the bottom they were stamped PPU.
I was instantly infuriated... Never in my life did i think i would run into issues
with people counterfeiting ammunition. Im more upset because had i not looked
at these rounds and said anything to my father he wouldn't have known any
better... Until he shot them. I know for a fact PPU is garbage ammunition. This
crap keyholes at 50 meters! Ive shot it out of my 303 British and 308 and its
always loaded inconsistently. Now i dont know who to point fingers at yet...
Was it budget shooters supply or hornady? I want to get to the bottom of this
and find my father some legitimate ammunition that isnt serbian garbage in a
hornady box.
If you guys could help me out that would be great i just want to find out how
this happened and why. Maybe someone else has run into this issue with other
ammunition. Id call the guy at shooters supply but im not sure its even his fault
but i would probably lose my temper over the phone and just point fingers and
then i would look like an ass. I just want to get my facts all straight and
go from there.
