Hi Van,
Welcome. I noticed you posted this next door, where I think you will find a greater variety of answers, but I'm sure you'll hear what there is to be heard over here. too. It's funny, but of all the different Mauser cartridges, this one seems to get lost in the shuffle, due mostly I guess to its odd size. I think it would be a great hunting round, and if there were more available components I think it would be a lot more popular with reloaders in general and casters in particular.
