Mold recommendation for 8mm Mauser, G88 rifle
I'd like to get back into reloading and casting. I didn't go too deep last time I did, just basic casting and loading for .38/.357. I've recently acquired a G88/05 and I think it's the perfect candidate to get into rifle reloading, not to mention casting. My bore slugs out to .323". What would be a good mold to start out with? I still need to get pretty much everything else equipment wise, but I figured I'd start with a mold...:)

My K98 slugs out at .323 too. I have the Lee mold which I beagle out to .324 or so, and I also honed my Lee sizer to .324”. The boolit is unbelievably accurate over 16 gr. of 2400.
That said, I just bought the Karabiner from midsouth. I am looking forward to casting some up, maybe today. They have both the Karabiner and the Maximum in stock for under $20.
Update: Karabiner's a winner. Great heavy for the 8mm Mauser.

OK, thanks. I had thought that was a lube groove-I’m seating them like this. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...9f9a001494.jpg
They chamber seated long but won’t feed.
