The PPU 7.9×33 Kurz 124gr FMJBT load (PPU part no. PP7K) is a box of 20 rounds of 7.9×33 Kurz ammunition with a 124-grain full metal jacket boat tail bullet. PPU lists it in its metric rifle series, the group of loadings it created for the foreign military and commercial rifles that have entered the U.S. market since WWII. The maker publishes 2250 fps at the muzzle and 1394 ft-lbs of energy, with the full trajectory out to 300 yards. It is a niche chambering, so a factory load with published ballistics is a welcome find for owners of Kurz rifles.
