    Need load data for 8mm Mauser 220 and 230 grain bullet

    Hello all! I am looking for load data for an 8mm Mauser with both 220 and 230 grain projectiles. I would prefer loads using Unique or IMR4064 as those are the two I have on hand. Thanks!

    I too was shooting a Turk mauser loaded with Reloader 7 and some loads with 4759
    I was using the NOE 325-365 , 216 gr cast boolit. GC 'ed and Powdercoated
    29.0 of reloader 7
    and 23.0 of 4759
    I have shot Unique in these Mausers with the same boolit in the range of 13 to 16 grains.
    Those can be used as a Starting point to work up your load with a slightly Heavier boolit.

    .30-40 Krag data should work just fine(220gr). Case capacity is similar.
