    I have thought the same thing for years, Doug. That would have made the U.S. Carbine an excellent combat weapon, IMO. Treetop

    One of my .351 WSL is drilled for a scope and has five notches carved into the stock. I hope it was a hunter that owned it and not a prison guard.

    Great thread! I have dabbled in the .351 WSL and even killed two deer with cast in mine a couple of years ago; http://castboolits.gunloads.com/show...317823-351-wsl

    They are capable rifles. I used the old Lyman manual's starting loads, haven't done a lot with it since, but did pick up a proper set of dies and experimented a little with the 350447, light bullet for the .348 Winchester. I dropped the Lyman starting loads of 4227 a whole grain and they functioned perfectly and shot a lot more accurately than the cast I had tried before and successfully hunted with. Gonna have to get that old rifle out in the woods again someday.

    they're nice rifles and fun to shoot .My 32wsl is the easiest to make ammo for and the 401 isn't too bad .The WSL rifles are well built but in odd chambering but all in all fun heavy handy length rifles

    Anyone with a .351 still having milsurp WC820 on hand, try it. Works great in the .351./beagle

    Has anyone ever modified a Triple K magazine to accommodate all 10 rounds and had it run smoothly?
    And also along those lines - has anyone been able to modify one to function with a 1905 or 1910?
    Apologies if I posted this in the wrong forum.
    Thank you!

    I dont think you will be able to modify a 1907 mag to fit a 1910 with any success. The cartridge is a lot larger in many dimensions. I wish you luck if you give it shot. Please keep us posted with the progress.

    You're exactly right. I do realize that the 401 wsl is quite large for the magazine - but I have noticed that some fellas get quite creative with modifications!! Mostly though, I would like to hear how to make these magazines run with the 32, 35, or 351 wsl. My experience has been that loading them to full capacity leads to stovepipes and general jams. It is possible that it is something that I am doing wrong!!
