Prvi Partisan headstamp question

Does anyone know if there is any particular pattern to which Prvi Partisan stamps it's cases? I have a selection of calibres both military and commercial and some of each are stamped PPU and others are the cyrillic "nny" but ive also seen PP and PRVI on some brass too. Is it a matter of where/when it was produced or whether it was military or sporting? It seems a bit random...
 
"nny" tends to be military for domestic production whilst "PPU" and variants are for export, mainly to countries using the Roman rather than the Cyrillic alphabet.
