Common Rom surplus , it was all over and cheap about 10 years ago . It is a different load than most with a .321 dia 154 grain bullet with a steel core at about 2600 fps .
A K-98k is not a Standard Mauser . A Standard Mauser could have been sold to China and that sounds like a Chinese stamp .
Thanks for clearing up a bunch of misinformation from several people who did not know what they were talking about .
About 15 years ago a friend of mine did a research project on BNZ Radom rifles . He bought about 100 to examine , How many do you have ? He was in contact with people in Poland and Radom . Since...
Then the Poles who said they made complete rifles are wrong ? The records from Radom are wrong ? That is my point , old bad info .
The problem with BNZ K-98k rifles is there is a lot of misinformation out there in print and internet . Most people do not understand there were TWO factories making rifles under the BNZ stamp .. ...
Sounds like a series 1 . The earlier type bayonet would be more correct for the time frame . But Bayonets were made by many other companies and were not matched to a rifle . So a rifle could have...
Texas is having the Feb big pig contest . 77 K for the heaviest . I have been out 4 nights so far but nothing over 250 lb . It is going to take 300 + just to make the top 10 payout . I was hunting a...
I have hunted with it for years . It has the flat shooting range of the 300 WM but the hitting power of the .338 . There are a lot more bullets available now than there was . It is my go to rifle...
I will put it on my calendar . There are low cost direct flights from LV to my town . You can spend a day or two on my ranch hunting hogs . I think the hardest part for you will be picking what...
Good to see you are still out shooting . You are still welcome to come to Texas to hunt wild pigs . Texas has a big pig contest going on for the month of Feb . 77k for the largest pig shot . It...
Which Hornady 6.5mm 160 bullet ?
Shooting .257 Roberts in a .6.5mm barrel would be a waste of time as the bullet would barely touch the rifling. The original barrel will have a groove size of about .265 or more . The rifle should...
Some of my very best target load for 7x57mm military rifles were light loads with the very light bullets of 100 to 115 grains . PERIOD . I am talking about 1 to 1.5 inch 5-shot groups at 100 yards...
Something else that will help with the fb light bullets is a light load with a fast burning powder . That will give them a " kick in the pants ' to help with obturation , the light bullets are...
You need to know the groove size . If you have a .288 + groove your short boat tails will not ride the rifling straight and you will have poor accuracy . I have seen that a lot on 7mm military rifles...
You need to get the groove measurement , that is most likely your problem . What bullets are you using ? The groove will matter much more than the throat .
No series are known as pre Godzilla rifles , it was not really an earthquake .
No metric ? You are already using 7.62x63mm . The 98/22 is a 7.92mm rifle , but you could always just load it with .323 if you did not want metric .
If your rifle will set them off then it would be no problem . That would depend on a few factors , how strong is your spring , firing pin condition , how tight is your headspace and chamber ? Many...
My original Japanese WWII 7.7mm ammo has a .470 head size .
The 8x57mm case head size was developed by the German military and Mauser starting with the 8x57 and 7.65x54 and 7x57 . They wanted to be able to make the same rifle and case parts and tooling and...
Another internet myth . The 7.7x58mm rifle cartridge has nothing to do with the .303 Brit other than using the same bullet dia . It is not a rimless version as it has a different case shape and...
All most all of the Japanese rifles in the US were used in the Pacific or are from post surrender Japan . Most used in China stayed in China , with a small number of those being imported post war to...
