Ahh, that's helpful. It looks old to me, but I don't really know what commercial German ammo packaging typically looks like.

Sounds like 55 Boys, an old British anti-tank round. How many do you have?

I purchased two of these on a lark recently. They were sitting next to an open tin of 4mm Kurz, but neither I nor the seller had any real idea what they might be. 326697326698

They are fantastic little guns and I certainly miss mine. When it came to ammo, it was a garbage disposal, and suppressed well. Some people are very dismissive of PCCs, but I consider them to be much...

Is that the original barrel? A friend of mine has one, which we went out shooting the other day. All the ammo was made by me, using .515" projectiles; it shot very well. I wonder if it also has such...

I'm not so sure about this guy; he just sent me an email, claiming to know somebody who has a pistol that I am looking for. He gave me an email address, which is not affiliated with any user from...

Personally, I'd go with the original bore diameter. However, with lead projectiles, I doubt it's going to harm anything. Heck, I put plenty of .311"-.313" projectiles down barrels with .308"-.309"...

There is some old Starline 50-70 brass floating around out there, with a significantly smaller rim diameter; the headstamp says 50-70, but they may have originally been made for 348 Winchester....

I know a guy who might be able to source one. I'll let you know via PM.

I simply won't use PayPal for anything; I like cash, checks, money orders, gold bullion, etc.

In my experience, at least one of everything exists.

That's why I am asking; I know that real black powder cannot have any gap, but I wasn't sure about Triple 7 pellets specifically.

I was a bit torn on just where to post this, hopefully the right person will see it. Anyway, I have some Triple Seven pellets that I got for free a while back, and I'd like to use them up. A friend...

Unfortunately, many FFL's are clueless as well; I had one insist that tasers require a 4473. I also know of an old ATF agent, who does not believe that the category of antiques even exists, and has...

Holy smoke, I'm glad that I've only had to contend with housemice; at this point, I've shot more of them than deer.:mrgreen:

I'm pretty sure it has more to do with parents shoving tablets into the hands of toddlers. These kids are addicted to glowing screens, endless video clips, and social media, nearly from the womb.

I am not sure what the theoretical maximum would be, but I do know that there is a point of diminishing returns; I loaded a 505 gibbs with 120 grains of ffg under a 700 grain solid, and got 1415 fps....

Th325408is tin had 25 rounds left in it, several of which I have shot, and of all the low-power 22 I have (CB's from various manufacturers, Colibri/Super Colibri, CCI Quiets, etc), I like how these...

8mm Mauser. The neck will be a little short, but it hasn't caused me a problem. I have gone as far as simply swapping the projectile on surplus ammo with some 150 grain .312 projectiles that I had...

100 Grain SWC, 2.7 Grains of Red Dot. According to Speer No 8 (printed in 1970), that is actually below max for the S&W Long. This might be an example of downloading over the years. 324304

Hmm, in my succesful endeavor to duplicate Buffalo Bore's ballistics in my 32 S&W with Red Dot, it appears that I have exceeded the 32 H&R, at least according to that edition of Speer. But I am not...

It usually isn't, I've tried.

From his measurements, if I am reading these drawings correctly, it should be 32 S&W. Or course, it's easy to check, sin 32 S&W shouldn't fit into a 32 Colt chamber.324190324191

You know it's funny, I never thought to try weighing the charge; I just used the volumetric measure, and assumed that it was different. Good to know. Of course you are also correct about balloon-head...

Black powder is very simple and the exact charge isn't crucial, though the original 32 S&W was loaded with 9 grains (by volume, not weight) of 3F. In the past, I've just eyeballed it with 2F and an...
