We don’t know everything that goes on in Serbia. We assume they eat sandwiches just like everyone else. There are probably music, culture, and other foods there as well. But one thing we do know for sure is this: Prvi Partizan makes might-E-fine 38 Special target ammo there.
Get the thought of lead round nose bullets out of your head. These rounds are loaded with proper full metal jackets, which have brass, nonmagnetic covers to help reduce barrel leading. The FMJ’s also got a round nose profile. That’s not ideal for lever-action rifles by some estimates, which hold that a flat nose bullet’s safer for a tube mag.
Prvi Partizan recorded this load’s muzzle velocity with a 7.7” barrel. That’s admittedly long, but we assume that’s just the way they like to do it over in Serbia. Assuming the bullet hits its advertised muzzle velocity (and calculating that it has a 0.164 G1 BC), we can surmise the following close-range ballistics:
0yds: 1,017 fps | 299 ft lbs | -0.2”
10yds: 1,004 fps | 291 ft lbs | 0.1”
20yds: 991 fps | 284 ft lbs | 0.0”
30yds: 979 fps | 277 ft lbs | -0.4”
40yds: 968 fps | 270 ft lbs | -1.2”
50yds: 957 fps | 264 ft lbs | -2.4”
