Werndl 11.15x42R 11mm scharfe Patrone M.67

[yulzari]

Thank you Patrick. Much very useful information. Possibly my issue is that, with careful buying of items that need restoring and are misidentified, I can buy another rifle for 150€. On the other hand I should be thinking that a press will let me load for any future rifles. But then this is a man who deprimes with a nail and a hammer, primes with a copper tube and a hammer and sizes bullets with a drilled hole in some scrap 400 year old oak, a piece of scrap brass rod and, of course, a hammer. Did I mention the hammer? It's a good hammer. Cost me 50 cents at a vide grenier.

We will see the size when it arrives. Chappie is waiting for my cheque to clear. It will be interesting to see if a sulphur cast differs from a wax one as I shall try both methods. I will be able to see what spring steel strip I can scrounge to make a new drum leaf spring and source it's retaining screw. The leaf spring should temper from full hard nicely in the molten lead when I am casting some bullets. Less smoke than frying it in burning tallow. 20th and 21st centuries? Never heard of them.
