My swedes like unique as well- I use around 11.5 gr with the same bullet that has had the nose sized down to .265" back to the second driving band from the front.

Groups about the same except at...

Where did you get that sight and are they still made? I've been trying to find a clamp on sight or mount for a 1911 rifle and that's the first I've seen.

I'd take a 1911 or 96/11 over a k-31 any...

I've been using the classic Turret for about a year. It is a very strong press, I use it all the time to resize .284win brass to 7.5 swiss. The only improvement that I think could be made would be a...

I haven't had much luck with 2400 in my M96s using the 6.5 kurtz bullet at least. I started with a load of 16gr and got about 1450 fps. I went all the way up to 18 gr but never got very good...

Got mine last week, haven't had much time to do anything but to take a look at it.

If mine comes out close to what others have been getting for bullet size it will be a mold that I might be able...

I'll take one, if you can get some that are in the original specs, I'll take one of those too if possible.

I shoot the Kurz's out of my M41b. They usually stay inside of 2-3" at 100 yards using Unique- good enough for fun plinking. They also shoot about that well out of my 94/14 carbine at 50 yards. If I...

Counterboring shouldn't be too difficult for a gunsmith with the right equipment to do. Don't attempt to do it with a hand drill- its a bad idea and I have the scars to prove it.[smilie=1:

The Lee 200 gr SWC shoots very well in my Springy Loaded model.

I sent the seller an email, and will be ordering two of them when I get a reply back. They might not turn out to be much for shooters, but rarity has a value of its own.

I have one just like that except with a laminated stock and in 8mm. Like you said, very good shooters and minty-new condition.

Does it have a Persian crest? (A Lion standing in front of a sunburst holding a sword?)

If its a Czech contract rifle its easily worth $500-600 if not more- these are pretty rare.
If its a M49...

I picked up an unissued one for around $130 a few years ago when they were still cheap and everywhere. Shoots good for the first 10-15 shots or so, then the barrel gets a little warm and she starts...

Success....

I ended up sizing the front 2 bands down to .265" (I still had to seat hte bullets pretty deep in the case), set the gaschecks in place with minimal disturbance of the band in front of...

I broke one the same way a month or so ago.

Or a bumper from a toyota pickup. I hear they have really good 7-8 year old gunsmiths in that region.:)

I'm assuming that these are from the cache of martinis found imported from Nepal a few years back? SOGs prices seem to be about 1/2 of what others are/were seling them for, maybe they have the worst...

That was my best description for when a customer orders a single custom mould of their own design.

I wouldn't get too excited over the letter, it sounds like a CYA out out by Mr Lee.
I was talking to a machinest from Lee this last weekend and what he told me echoed what Junior posted- They have...

I haven't shot it with jacketed bullets yet. I pretty much assume that a swede is going to shoot good, as I haven't had a bum one yet- but Iguess I'm making a pretty broad assumption. I might load up...

Thanks for all of the advice, its given me a lot to think about.

I'm going to end up trying a few things:

A few different loads using Unique with my already sized and lubed bullets.

Same...

I tried my first expeiment last week with the 6.5 kurtz boolit in swede carbine. The accuracy...

Oops, I posted in the wrong forum. Moved it over to Military loads. Sorry:(

I bought 3 boxes of Wolf Gold 7.62x54r (prvi partisan brass) ammo the other day main for the brass.
The loads shot like garbage in my favorite 91/30 (romanian and czech surplus shoots better) I...

czech 98/22 or 98/29 are my 2 favorites
