    Reloading for the russian berdan rifles

    I use 43 spanish cases from Bertram reformed by CH4D
    have to fireform to headspace on the schoulders by using a thin ring against the case rim
    use 15 to 17 grs n340 from Vhita set thin piece of copy paper as a keeper over powder
    use a heeled bullet: ex Lee custom made years ago ordered by Coyote and Mammot as a group buy, hollow base .430 heel . 425 293 gns greased and sized by Saeco
    use this combination in a Berdan I and II

    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 ...
