A word of caution: much modern ammunition is simply to hot for the old knee-joint mechanism on a P08 or LP08. It hammers the cam profile and eventually peens it out of shape. If you can find it, use a load that produces a muzzle velocity of not much more than 320 meters/sec with a 124/125 gn bullet. Lapua produced such a cartridge, but it now seems to be unobtainable. If you value your antique (and I know you do) please do not be tempted to use a stronger load just to be able to knock over a piece of iron plate!
