Firing 8x52R in an "8x50R" rifle?!?
Copied the excerpt on, (https://www.militaryrifles.com/austria/m1888mannlicher). It says the throats were cut deep enough where the 52mm length case will work OK....

Forum: Military Rifles
Long rifles that were "sprorterized", like mine, lost the gain rifling. :( They will stabilize 100 grain or lighter projectiles. Size down 270 WIN .277 projectiles to .268. :)
Aim small, miss small.

.32 S&W SHORT roll crimp?
Been reloading for a while.
New to .32 S&W short though. Are roll crimp dies available? Do you even need to roll crimp .32 S&W short?
Thank you for your time.
Aim High! It allows for bullet drop.
158 Gr FMJ
I "acquired" a hundred 158 grain, .354 dia FMJ projectiles a while back. Anyone got load data for these in 9x19. Think the 3.3gr of Red Dot would work?
Thank you for your time.
Aim small, miss...
