1918 T-Gewehr Bullets

[rescuerandy2]

Good Morning Patrick,

Yes, this is going to be perhaps my greatest endeavor at a resurrection. The simplest, and perhaps the cheapest, answer seems to be a machinist who can turn brass rods into solid bullets. I have tried several shops and they were No-go. With the T-Gewehr at .525, I am trying to get those folks to just move up their 50BMG bullets just a bit to help me out.

While scanning the collector websites, I read references to folks discussing group buys for brass and bullets from Germany. When PMed they seem to be off line. Thanks, Randy

With the T-Gewehr at .525

I have two cartridges here and one of them comes apart by hand. The bullet is exactly .524" no matter how many times you measure or where around it. Not oval or squeezed nor is it fired.
