I picked up a sporterized Carcano today in a trade. It's a 6.5 that has been sporterized quite some time ago and it was done very tastefully in my opinion. I used to have one back in the late sixties, but can't rememer what I did with it. Need to pick up a couple of clips/magzines for it now.
I've got a couple of 6.5 moulds, RCBS 140-FNGC and a Lee CM that may work. Haven't used the CM mould yet, but have being following some threads on it that don't seem too promising.
Thought about paper patching my RCBS 6.5, but I don't have any PP experience.
If looks were indications, it ought to shoot great!
