I recently picked up a 91/38 Carcano Troop Special Carbine in the 6.5 Carcano caliber. The rifle is in very good condition, especially the bore. Barrel measures 17 and a fraction inches long. It should have the traditional .268" groove diameter, meaning I will probably have to Beagle any .266" diameter mold I might find (have nothing in this diameter now). If anyone on this site has past experience in loading the 6.5 Carcano caliber would you please share your experiences, in detail. I would appreciate hearing about your mold ID, powder choice and load weight, and any other details you could add in to the mix. Many thanks.
