Overview
The PPU .303 British 180gr SP BT is premium rifle ammunition, specifically designed as a high-performance hunting cartridge for your Lee-Enfield or P14 rifle. Manufactured by Prvi Partizan (PPU) in Serbia, this .303 British ammunition combines a classic, heavy-hitting bullet weight with a modern aerodynamic design.
Unlike many standard .303 hunting loads which use flat-base bullets, this PPU .303 British cartridge features a Boat Tail (BT) projectile. This tapered base reduces drag in flight, improving downrange velocity retention and resistance to wind drift. Combined with a soft lead nose, this 180gr bullet delivers controlled expansion and deep penetration, making it an excellent choice for medium-to-large game such as Red Stag, Fallow Deer, and Pigs.
PPU is renowned for its high-quality, reloadable .303 British brass, making this ammunition a favourite among handloaders who want to extend the life of their vintage firearms.
-
Soft Point Boat Tail (SP BT): The boat tail design increases the Ballistic Coefficient (approx. 0.512), helping the bullet fly flatter and hit harder at extended ranges compared to traditional flat-base rounds.
-
Heavy 180gr Weight: Provides superior sectional density and momentum, ensuring the bullet punches deep through muscle and bone.
-
Premium Brass Cases: Features high-quality, boxer-primed PPU .303 British brass that is annealed for durability and is fully reloadable.
-
Non-Corrosive: Modern production primers and powder ensure your barrel remains safe from corrosion.
-
Lee-Enfield Safe: Loaded to standard pressures safe for use in SMLE No. 1 Mk III, No. 4 Mk I, and P14 rifles in good condition.
