The PPU 285gr SP bullets are brand new 9.3mm (.366 inch) soft point projectiles from Prvi Partizan, delivered in a sealed 50 count bag. This is a heavy, deep penetrating bullet for the classic European 9.3mm cartridges, the kind of round built for driven boar and large game. The soft point design offers controlled expansion with strong weight retention, exactly what big bore hunters look for. For reloaders feeding a 9.3×62, 9.3x74R, or similar chambering, these bullets are a dependable and affordable component.
What the PPU 285gr SP Bullets Are and Who They Are For
These are 285 grain, .366 inch soft point bullets for handloading the 9.3mm family, not loaded ammunition. The 9.3mm cartridges are legends of the European hunting world, prized for putting heavy game down with authority at woodland ranges. A soft point of this weight expands in a controlled way while holding much of its mass, which drives penetration through bone and heavy muscle. That makes this projectile a natural fit for hunters who load their own big game ammunition and want reliable terminal behavior. If you run a 9.3×62 or 9.3x74R, these bullets belong on your bench.
The 9.3mm cartridges are woods and driven boar legends across Europe, and a heavy soft point is the classic bullet for the job. At 285 grains, this projectile carries the momentum to smash through heavy bone while the exposed lead tip starts controlled expansion right away.
Handloading for a 9.3×62 or 9.3x74R lets you feed these guns affordably and consistently, which is a real advantage when factory ammunition can be scarce and expensive. Start with a single sealed bag to develop your load, then step up to the 10 bag option once you have a recipe your rifle shoots well.
For hunters who travel to Europe or run a 9.3mm at home, keeping these components on hand means you are never grounded by an empty ammunition shelf. Build a batch and you are ready for the driven hunt.

Specifications Woven Into the Load
Each bullet weighs 285 grains and measures .366 inch, the correct diameter for the 9.3mm cartridge line. Bullets come in a sealed 50 count bag, with a 10 bag option for shooters who load in volume. The soft point construction leaves lead exposed at the tip to start expansion, while the jacket and heavy weight govern how deeply the bullet drives. Because these are components rather than loaded rounds, build your recipe from published 9.3mm data and work up from a safe starting charge. Confirm velocity over a chronograph so your load matches the performance this projectile was designed to deliver.
Practical Use, Care, and Compatibility
Load these into 9.3×62, 9.3x74R, or other 9.3mm brass, and match your crimp to the recoil level of your rifle. Store the sealed bag in a dry place so the soft lead tips stay clean and undamaged before seating. The heavy soft point excels on boar, red stag, and other large game where deep, controlled penetration is the priority. Round out your big bore reloading bench with brass, powder, and primers from the rest of our shooting and reloading gear. These PPU bullets ship direct where state and local law allows.
For 9.3mm handloaders who want a heavy, hard hitting soft point at a fair price, the PPU 285gr SP bullets are a proven choice. Ships direct to your door, no FFL required.
