7.62 Tokarev – 85 Gr FMJ – PPU (PPH7TF) – 500 Rounds

Looking for clean, non-corrosive 7.62×25 Tokarev ammo for your TT-33 or CZ-52? Pick up this 500 round case of PPU PPH7TF 7.62x25mm Tokarev 85 grain FMJ ammo from Prvi Partizan.

Most 7.62×25 Tokarev on the market has been old surplus with corrosive Berdan primers. That ammo works, but it forces you to scrub your pistol the same day you shoot it. This PPU load uses modern non-corrosive Boxer primers and fresh brass cases. That means easier cleanup and brass you can actually reload. The 85 grain full metal jacket bullet leaves the muzzle fast. PPU rates it at 1,720 fps and 558 ft-lbs of muzzle energy, which gives the Tokarev its famous flat trajectory and sharp report. The FMJ bullet feeds reliably in the TT-33, Zastava M57, CZ-52, and PPS-43 style carbines.

Prvi Partizan has made ammunition in Serbia since 1928 and its Zastava neighbor built many of the pistols this cartridge was made for. That makes PPU a natural fit for collectors of Eastern Bloc firearms. This load is best for target shooting, plinking, and range training. It is not intended for self-defense. A 500 round case gives you enough to break in a new-to-you surplus pistol, confirm reliability, and enjoy several range days. Note that many 7.62×25 firearms can also chamber 7.63×25 Mauser, but always confirm with a gunsmith before mixing the two. The 7.62x25mm Tokarev was the standard Soviet pistol cartridge for decades. It is known for high velocity and good penetration, which is why surplus TT-33 and CZ-52 pistols remain popular with shooters who enjoy history. Some CZ-52 owners prefer to avoid the hottest loads, and this standard-pressure PPU load is a sensible everyday choice.

This imported ammo is new production, brass-cased, Boxer-primed, and non-corrosive. The fired brass is reloadable. Each box holds 50 rounds, and ten boxes make up this 500 round case, so you can keep a few boxes in your range bag and store the rest.
