    YUGO M48. Bullet Choice?

    Hello all.

    A while since Iv'e been on the Forum to my shame. I would look forward to your opinions on Bullet choice for the M48.
    A local dealer has 196Grn .323 and 185 Grn .322. I have not slugged the bore, and hoped not to, given I'm told that these Rifles were made to tight tolerances and differ little.

    If members could pass on any experience I would be grateful.

    Cheers.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    I always used the .323 from Sellier&Bellot.
    Good ammo for the K98kicon.
    I think the Yogo should not differ much, if at all, concerning ammo.

    I've used the PRVI 196gr FMJBT bullets in mine and they work very well.
    I've also cast some .323" 185 gr gas checked bullets but it's winter here and I'm feeling too old to go outside these days. I expect they will work adequately over a charge of AA 5744

    Hi Pals.
    My thoughts were with the .323 and as it goes, it is PRVI 196 Grn Bullet thats on offer. I'm told they closely match the originals.

    Thanks as always for your replies and advice.

    Regards, The Monk
