I purchased a pound of this shortly after watching that video by Johnny's Reloading Bench; bought it to try in my aging 7mm Mauser. I have rounds loaded up with 165 Sierra Gamechangers, I just need to get out to the range to see how they do and to chrono them.

I use IMR 4895, and IMR 3031. I have obtained some IMR 4320, but haven't had a chance to try it out yet.

I have tried a whole range of bullet weights in my Yugo M24/47. Still not as much as I would like. Best results for accuracy, oddly enough, were with 150 grain bullets. (Hornady manufacture.) I just received some Speer 150s, and, if things work out, might use them for hunting this year.

Model 1893 Spanish Mauser, dated 1906.

I have not had the chance to try Prvi Partisan brass yet. I'd like to, though, just to see how well it works. Sometimes, though, rifles are just different. Thusfar, Winchester seems to survive the longest in mine.

I wonder why so many people try to trash talk this rifle? I definitely would not have any complaints with that. Thanks for the range report!

I have seen rim-lock happen on Mosins before. Despite the before-mentioned interrupter, sometimes they just do not work right. I have heard of it happening on an Enfield, but have never experienced it yet (even with loading cartridges to do so.)

I have got the opportunity to handle and fire a good number of them. Some are good, some are bad. Some are very accurate, some are not worth writing home about. I do not think I will ever own one, despite their place in history.

...Pics?

The MAS-36 has stripper clips as well - I have no clue why they did not use them on Deadliest Warrior. (It is a fun show to watch, but the "experts" make mistakes like that sometimes. There are also just some general inconsistencies.) The thing that has me curious is the bit about the sight...

I would be interested to see what accuracy someone can produce with it. I have heard a lot of people say that the rifle, in general, is not that great in the accuracy department, but have seen only one person prove it. I hear other people say it is just as accurate as any other rifle out...

I don't suppose that range report would be possible to see, sometime soon?

Talking from a standard cartridge perspective alone, I do think that the hat goes off to the 8x57. It did fire a heavier bullet at a slower velocity than the standard M2 Ball we used, but the bullet was boat-tailed. Paired with the momentum, I think that makes for superior round for...

I guess the question I have is what platform is he using the .223 in? Speer is using a Ruger bolt action, and Hornady is using a Remington 700. (Along with different firing platforms, they're also using different brass.) Regardless of how well the components line up, I would work up the...

I would get the Swede, mostly because I already have something that fires the 8mm Mauser cartridge.

I fell for this trap! Rather, I should say, it serves as another example that every rifle (firing platform, rather?) is different. In my rifle, I got the complete opposite results, with the addition of the powder leaving things dirty. I was not pleased, to say the least, because I had...

I have Lee, RCBS, and Lyman. If you forced me to pick, I'd probably say RCBS... But, I just know that I would not buy Lee again.

+1 on slugging.

Nice!

As a hunter, my hunting loads are my accuracy loads. A couple hundred feet per second is not going to make a difference when you are already pushing over two-thousand.
