Pick up this 500 round case of PPU PPH763 7.63 Mauser 85 grain FMJ ammo from Prvi Partizan. If you own a Mauser C96 or another pistol chambered in 7.63 Mauser, this is a straightforward way to stock up on ammunition for a caliber that is rarely loaded today. Collectors who want to actually shoot their pistols, rather than only display them, will appreciate having a consistent factory load in quantity.
The 85 grain full metal jacket bullet is the traditional load for this cartridge. Prvi Partizan’s factory catalog lists a muzzle velocity of 1,509 fps and muzzle energy of 430 ft-lbs, measured from a 150mm test barrel. The 7.63 Mauser was one of the fastest handgun cartridges of its day, and this load gives you a flat shooting round for target practice and enjoying a historic pistol. FMJ bullets are designed for range use, not hunting or defense.
The 7.63 Mauser was introduced in 1896 with the Mauser C96 pistol, often called the Broomhandle for the shape of its grip. It is dimensionally similar to the 7.62×25 Tokarev, but for C96 pistols you should use ammunition loaded as 7.63 Mauser, like this one. Many C96 pistols are well over a century old, so have yours inspected by a qualified gunsmith before shooting, and confirm the chambering marked on your firearm. Prvi Partizan has made ammunition in Serbia since 1928 and is one of the few makers still producing this cartridge.
This is new production ammunition loaded in brass cases with Boxer primers, which makes the cases reloadable. PPU ammunition is non-corrosive, so there is no need for the special cleaning that older surplus ammunition required. The case contains 10 boxes of 50 rounds each, for a total of 500 rounds. Store PPU PPH763 in a cool, dry place and you will have plenty on hand for your collection.
