I just picked up a Encore barrel in 7.92-33 Kurz, was wondering if anybody else was loading or shooting this cartridge. I would appreciate any loading data you could share.
Take care now

If there is nothing in your life worth dying for than you are already dead.
That is probably going to be a neat combination not far removed from my tweaked .32-20 Matini Cadet conversion. No idea how it'll translate to a 7.92 Kurz, but I ended up with 10.5 grains of AA#9 (a rough 2400 equivalent), behind 130 grains for 1530 fps. Might be a starting point for you.
The topic forces me to ask. . .if the full auto parent weapon was Hitler's "Storming Rifle", would a single shot break open be a "Lightly Misting Drizzle Rifle"?
WWJMBD?
In the Land of Oz, we cast with wheel weight and 2% Tin, Man.
Guess I had to answer my own question, going to try H4198, RL-7 and AA2015. I bought 4000 Hornady 125 gr bullets, I must have a habit for loading odd ball calibers. JMHO

This sounds like a great walking around light/mid duty rifle and I love the encore platform. Keep is posted on results
I think you can use 7.62x39 data and be fine. I'm just glad Hornady brought back the 125 gr 8mm bullet. Sold as a varmint bullet; at 3000 FPS from my BRNO 8x57 it dropped deer right there,right then.
