    Compress it enough to seat your boolit and wad column to your desired COL.

    Here is a good article on the 43 Mauser.

    Knowledge I take to my grave is wasted.

    I prefer to use cartridges born before I was.

    Success doesn't make me happy, being happy is what allows me to be successful.
