    WTS: 71/84 Mauser, Brass, dies, mould package $500

    SPF !!!

    1887 Spandau. Good bore, shoots well despite pitting at the muzzle end, it is shiny and sharp throughout the rest of the bore. Some pitting on the exterior of muzzle. I have over 200 rounds down the tube with no leading issues.

    The only matching serials are the stock and barreled action. All others are non matching, the mag tube is solid with good nickel playing remaining and only a few minor rust holes. This is common.

    Rifle functions and shoots great, the stock is free of any splits or damage otherwise with beautiful grain.

    Included with the rifle is 50 pieces of 45-90 brass trimmed and formed for this specific rifle, it works very well and I have reloaded them 4 times now. Also including the dies which are LEE brand and work well.

    SPF SPF Asking $480 shipped for the whole package. 15 rounds are already loaded out of the 50 brass pieces. NO FFL REQUIRED. SPF SPF

    What a beautiful piece ... and all the reloading accessories too. Wish I were a decade or two younger.

    Suspect that rifle would win buku style points at a Vintage Rifle Match.

    Hope it finds a good home.

    My apologies I put this ad up just before work yesterday. Here’s the mold cut from a lee mold block. It drops at 400 grains around .436 ish. They need sized to .430 or so before paper patching to .446 required for these rifles. Accurate arms makes a similar paper patch mold like this one but it’s around $90.

    Oh no, I regularly use smokeless. 28 to 32 grains of H4198 behind 400 grain bullets is a trapdoor rated load, these rifles are built a lot beefier than the trapdoor action.

    3031 also works well in these. I shoot mine with a smokeless load that basically duplicates the original performance specs of the BP load.

    FYI I have lowered the price to $480 shipped. Work is slow and rent needs paid on the 1st.

    If you don't want to paper patch, Lyman makes a grease groove bullet mold, 446110. Size to .446. I use 24 gr. 5744 with Dacron wad.
