Finding quality 7.5x55mm Swiss ammo isn't always easy, which is exactly why Prvi Partizan built their Metric Rifle line. This 174-grain soft point load is made to feed the huge family of surplus and commercial European rifles that landed on American shores after WWII, with the legendary Swiss K31 and Schmidt-Rubin straight-pulls at the top of that list. If you own one of these classics, this is one of the more dependable factory options out there for keeping it fed.
The 7.5×55 Swiss, also known as the GP11, was adopted by Switzerland back in 1911 and earned a reputation for precision that still holds up today. It pushes a .308-diameter bullet at velocities in the neighborhood of 2,525 fps, putting it right in the same performance class as the .308 Winchester and .30-06 for energy and flat shooting. That makes it a genuinely capable cartridge for medium and large game, not just a range curiosity.
The soft point bullet uses an exposed lead nose that mushrooms on impact, giving you controlled expansion and solid penetration. That's a nice change from the FMJ profile of most surplus GP11, since the soft point opens the door to hunting deer and similar game while still grouping well on paper. The 174-grain weight also mirrors the original military load, which tends to shoot well in bores cut for that projectile.
Every round is loaded in fresh, non-corrosive, Boxer-primed brass cases. If you handload, that's a big deal in a caliber where components can be scarce, since these cases are reloadable and worth saving. Many K31 owners actually source their brass from this exact PPU ammunition when working up their own loads.
Whether you're taking a vintage Swiss rifle hunting, ringing steel at the range, or building up a stash of quality brass, this PPU 7.5×55 Swiss soft point covers a lot of ground for one of the more overlooked classics out there.
Yes, this is one of the go-to commercial loads for the Swiss K31 and the later Schmidt-Rubin straight-pull rifles. The 174-grain bullet weight matches the original GP11 military load, so it tends to shoot well in bores built for that projectile. Note that PPU specifies this ammo is not intended for the older Model 1889 Schmidt-Rubin.
It's a solid choice. The soft point bullet expands on impact for controlled expansion and a clean wound channel, and the cartridge itself delivers energy comparable to the .308 Winchester and .30-06. That puts it well within range for deer and similar medium to large game.
Absolutely. These are fresh, non-corrosive, Boxer-primed brass cases that reload easily. Plenty of K31 handloaders actually buy this PPU ammo specifically to get quality 7.5×55 Swiss brass, since components in this caliber can be hard to track down.
No, this PPU 7.5x55mm Swiss ammo is non-corrosive. That means less urgency on cleaning after a range trip compared to some older military surplus, though a good post-shooting cleaning is always smart with any classic rifle.
