8x50 R Mannlicher

[kutil]

I stopped using 9mm brass. Bad construction. Bad design

If you look at Mr Kutils avatar,you will note a group of power presses of about 5 ton rating.Now ,out here such presses sell for scrap metal price,and most have indeed gone that way.But ,if you are keen,you can pick one up for about the same price as a RC new.But ,having the press,you then need tooling,and either make or have custom made such tooling as is needed to deep draw brass.I have scrapped proper double acting armory presses,as there is no call to make anything here,and double acting presses cant be exported,due to UN rules.........I suspect that Mr Kutil resides in India,and 8x50 is a regularly used caliber there,being available in new made guns.
