I know it's a long shot, but I thought I would at least ask.

If .323 bullets are correct for the 8 x52 R, you can load them using 325 WSM dies I would imagine. Of course you will be neck sizing only, but that shouldn't be a problem with the Siamese Mauser.

I need to slug, but looks like from research I may need up to. 329. I know I can buy new dies, but I hoped maybe somebody out there has an original set collecting dust. I'm sure I can get some ammo loaded, but I'd like to have a correct original set.

try ch4d.com. they have both the .323 and .318 sizes in that caliber. if some body made a firearm in a caliber, they can make the dies. not cheap, but the quality is number 1 and the dies will last 5 lifetimes.

Everything is available to shoot them now. NOT the case in 1977 when I bought mine through the mail from Springfield Sporters for...............$18.99! Enjoy that rifle.
