I've been looking at the two FN guns that shoot this cartridge.
The pistol is apparently a straight blowback. The carbine I'm not so sure about. But, according to You Tube, the carbine comes apart very very easily.
So just maybe these two could be used with cast bullets. That's almost certainly true for the pistol. With the rifle it is a bit more iffy.
Anybody tried doing this?
Also I think that the brass has some sort of coating on it and that maybe the brass doesn't cycle well after that coating has worm off after several reloadings. Anyone know the details here?
