New one, Dutch P08

Welcome to the Lugerforum!

Since I am not sure what brands of ammunition are available in the Netherlands... I am not exactly sure what recommendation we can give you on ammunition.

Certainly most military surplus ammunition (unless specifically marked for use in submachine guns) should work well. Avoid the submachinegun ammo as some of it can be pretty hotly loaded to work a much larger action.

For commercial ammunition, Winchester 115 grain ammo works well for many on this side of the Atlantic. The standard projectile for military 9mm ammunition is 124 grain.

Perhaps some of our European members can provide additional recommendations based on what they know the availability of ammunition to be.
