I just joined the high road and i like the talking between everyone. I just bought a german 98m mauser. It was made in 1943 with matching numbers-it has a 4 x 40 bushnell scope, a stock that looks like curly maple. It looks brand new. I bought it since the guy that i know owes me 750.00 and he left me with 2200 8 mm shells that i later had a guy that reads arabic determine the shells were made in 1956. However, all mauser shells require one to clean their mauser after shooting due to the corrosive nature of the powder or primer-i'm not sur which. These are armour piercing, sniper shells. A guy tried to give me 200.00 for all these shells, but i took his advice and bought my own one of a kind mauser. I am waiting on arrival. Had trouble with the ffl i used. Does anyone know the actual value of these shells. They have been keep dry and each box has 190 on them which i was told was the grain. Beibg they can pierce armour and are for sniper purposes, made in egypt. What does anyone think?
Thanks,
