Austrian mannlicher 11.15x58r. Anyone reload this? And what is used for the parent case? I have an opportunity to pickup one for about $250.00, good bore, good wood ECT. Think this is a good project?

Grab it so fast smoke flies off their fingers!!!

I use 8mm Lebel brass but I understand .43 Mauser resizes better

I would love one.
Use 348Win and fireform.
I had one in 8x56R that used clips i suppose that yours will to. If you cant get some then it basically is a single shot.

The wood has lots of dings; the action works fine, the bore and chamber look great

Need to check for sure on single shot loading. Can be done but I hear real hard on extractor that may cost as much as rifle. Gtek

Yup, will tear the ejector sooner or later if it is forced over the rim every shot.
