1909 Argentine Mauser 7.65x54mm. Rifle has an excellent bore and is 100% matching. Scope is Tasco Custom Shop 7x in a 30mm tube. The eye relief is very touchy so I'll replace this scope before it's shot again. First time shooting this rifle with my own cast bullets. The LER scope mount will be re-worked so it'll be like the Czech Persian, lower.

Argentine military Berdan primed case. Lee .314" 170 grain. Load is 10.5 grs Swede Gallery Powder (like Unique). Lee crimp. Not great but doesn't show any obvious problems. The touchy eye relief of the scope made shooting this less enjoyable.

Good Shooting on your posts here together. Be careful, next thing you know you will have 180 pounds of alloys, more molds than you ever dreamed of and a shortge of time. BvT
