and a couple 6.5 arisakasNo that how I get an excuse to go buy more reloading shit including powder
Report myself for an R. I didn't go back far enough. I'll try to do better
K98 too.and a couple 6.5 arisakas
because they're proven to withstand compressed casefulls of pistol powder
nope mauser actions come apart good, and 8x57 has an excess of case capacity to work with to reach that endK98 too.
Lots of stupidly overbuilt actions came out of that era of "we know what we're doing but we don't know what we can get away with".
The K98 is regarded pretty highly in the world of "buy garbage milsurp that's been sitting in a tropical warehouse forever and shoot it without losing an eye".nope mauser actions come apart good, and 8x57 has an excess of case capacity to work with to reach that end
at least you're consistent in your assertions
I know a fella that loaded a 223 with 540 WW back in the day. Blew the hell out of his AR.The K98 is regarded pretty highly in the world of "buy garbage milsurp that's been sitting in a tropical warehouse forever and shoot it without losing an eye".
I guess you're right, I've never heard of anyone filling a case with pistol powder though.
Where find......me hungry now
