Very nice. I am a fanboy of all the Finn Mosins never really liked the Russkie ones. However; I have liked the M38. Much more than the later M44 carbine. I think any good cast load in a Mosin rifle...

I am a fan of IMR4227. Shoots good in all my military rifle calibers w/ cast.

Put a pic up. I know some of the Swede lovers we have here will be able to figure it out.

Thank you. I was wanting a good diopter sight that the Swedes used for modified iron in CBA military shoots. The most common are the Solodirn and the Elits. I started looking around and heard of the...

Oh yeah. It is on the rear receiver. Basically the same location as a M1 Garand’s, M1903A3’s, M1917’s, and a No.4 Mk.I’s peep sights.

I am looking to purchase a working Parker-Hale 5B (PH5B) rear diopter sight used for the Enfield P14 and the M1917 Enfield. Finish doesn’t matter as long as it works.
Thank you, Matt

I am on their waiting list for one…. It’s been a long wait. I hope we both can get one sooner than later.
Forum: CB Loads / Military Rifles
Thank you. I needed to hear good results. I do realize they are not the same. What I meant to say is that they do the same performance/accuracy wise as my IMR4227 or A5744 so don’t even bother w/ the...

I am going to experiment w/ VV N110 and N120 in my Swiss K11 and Finnish M39 using Saeco and NOE 315 bullets. Anyone have better luck w/ one over the other? Both do about the same? Can’t tell the...

Anyone want to sell a Swede carbine? Prefer original factory not sporterized or drilled and tapped for scopes. Wood and metal can be a little beat up but, looking for a nice bore.
Let me know what...

I had good luck in my M1903 w/ 47 grains of IMR3031 and a 110 grain Sierra HP Varmiter bullet. Very accurate out to 300 yards unless you were pushing a lot of cross wind. Low recoiling too. I copied...

For me and cast rifle: IMR4227. In a pinch 5744/Buffalo Rifle or maybe Unique and/or Red Dot.
Semi auto Pistol w/ plated or coated bullets for USPSA shoots: HP38
I use IMR4227 w/ great success in my military rifles shooting cast. A great powder!!!
Forum: CB Loads / Military Rifles
Got it. I am shooting old military rifles at 100, 200, and 300 yards. So, I am guessing somewhere in between your requirements. I get where you are coming from w/ the 1,000 yard shooting. Every...

Hello,
Want to do a little experimenting. To those who weigh their cast bullets and brass what is your cut-off for non use? +or- how many grains? I look forward to hearing from you.
Thanks!!!
