Patrick,
.312 Hornady 174 gr bullets already used. Its is not about hand loading or load development , its all about rebarreling a old sniper.
I got 45 yrs of hand loading and shooting 30 caliber rifles, I am not a novice at this. I am seeking a fine smith who can rebarrel
the old PU sniper. The old rifle needs a new barrel or its a wall hanger. That is where this is.
Here in USA, the attitude is just buy another Mosin Nagant. well, yeah but you see, I like my old sniper and want it rebarreled. I get a lot talk from gun smiths but they all duck when I say rebarrel this PU sniper. If it were a Springfield 03A4, no problem but a Mosin...or a No.4 Enfield.... Oh No.... t hey don't have a clue how to do it.
