I worked up a recipe for 2.7" 10ga field loads, for an old Damascus double gun. I wasn't able to find any load data "anywhere".
I asked because I thought you may be looking for something like...
I have recently develop a 10 ga load for my SXS. What gun are you loading for, and what will the loaded cartridges be used for?
There are many that use the .308 dia projectile as y'all have listed. But, to keep someone from possibly being missled a bit, there should be a correction to the listed calibers.
7.62X54r Russian,...
Yes, I understand. Naturally if you're loading them for someone else, to neck size, you'd have to be certain that every case you loaded whould have to be provided by the person being loaded for, and...
The "AA" wings on the Japanese rifles are basically designed to allow for the "leading" of the flying aircraft.
The notches, are used depending on how high the aircraft is. The general idea was...
There's a basic rule of thumb when determining whether to neck, or full length size.
If the ammo you are loading will only be fired in "one rifle", fired brass from that rifle needs only to be...
You're as right as you can be about that sir! "Rims", are generally a real pain in the arse. Even if you have one that can handle the rim, one must be careful not to "rim over" the cartridges when...
The 7.7 Jap must have been modified to accept the .303 I would think. The rimmed .303, which I suppose you could also name a 7.7 x 56R. For the .303 rimmed cartridge to chamber into battery in a 7.7...
To further what Toney said, these Arisaka rifle actions have been tested several times and found to be almost indestructible.
The "bring back" rifles are very collectable and expensive now days,...
I could never get never get rid of it, I'm sure I'll give it to my son one day. I looked on some of the antique and collectors auctions. I saw a couple that sold, or were for sale, at near a 1000...
I've got the sizemaster press set up with a short kit for the 10ga, as of last night. I also have all the 10ga components.
The press looks like a fine machine on the surface. I looked ad several...
Thanks for the replies Gents! This double 10ga belonged to my uncles father who was stationed in England during WWI. He purchased and brought the sporting gun home after the war, and hunted with it...
I don't know if they are Damascus specifically. I have been told, or read somewhere that there is another method / type that was sometimes used on some of the older English guns.
However the...
What about 10, and 24? I probably need help with both, as well as NEC presses. The press I bought was a "Sizemaster".
I hope you can tell me that they are good ones.
I'm about to load some 10 ga 3" for an old English, wire barrel, double gun. Do any of you guys have any experience with these?
One of the members at the range had a similar problem a couple of Sundays back. We changed the gas valve with a good working piece, and the problem was solved.
He later told me he found one for 5...
Spotlighting Roo's, what a good idea! The last time I played golf at the Anglesea Golf club, one of them was in my line and wouldn't move.
When I gave the little bastard a "nudge" with me club,...
I have one rifle chambered in a 6.5 x 53r (Dutch), I suppose you could call it 6.5x303. It's a very fine old round for sporting uses, considering the projectiles that are available.
I think the...
I know what you're saying, I used to say the same thing exactly. But the problem is, you will never be satisfied. After that Siamese, there'll be something else that will come along and grap your...
Very good! When I bought my 1st K31, back in the 80's (I'd have to check my book to be exact) I think I paid nearly 600 bux delievred. The deals are much better not aren't they?
Back then, surplus...
I work in Geelong and have some mates near Port Campbell and Adelaide. VIC is a very good place to accumulate Aussie dollars, for transfer back here to the woods in Georgia.
My only problem is the...
Dave, owyagoinmate? I work in Victoria, and get over to Adelade a couple of times a year. I haven't been there since September. My mates tell me it's as dry as a dead dingo's donger right now. One...
Ah yes, the rolling blocks. They have been made is so many calibers, for as many countries. I find it very enjoyable to work with them. The good thing is that you can't shoot a truck load of ammo if...
In my opinion, all the posts above here are true and as correct as can be! I actually have an old Bonanza press from back in the 40's sometime that belonged to my dad. I learned to reload on it...
I shoot rolling blocks, Mauser 71's, Gras and Vetterli, single shot rifles. I think the most enjoyment comes from fabing the ammo. I have caught myself firing what ammo I had so that I could make...
