8x56R Hungarian Mannlicher by Gil Sengel is the worst article I've ever read in Handloader magazine. For a periodical that is usually noted for excellent content, sloppy editing and lazy disinterested writing is very disappointing. Perhaps Sengel was assigned to write an article on a subject he knew and cared nothing about, or maybe he was just checking the minimum boxes in order to receive his pay, but this article is even worse than the .50-70 Government drivel he penned years ago.
Beginning with the error in the Table of Contents, this article should never have been published. Sengel eats up over half of his allotted space droning on about historical background on other cartridges, and even when he claims to get around to address the title subject, he ends up talking about the 8x50R and .33 Winchester. It appears that he didn't even fire the actual cartridge he was supposed to be covering, and there certainly wasn't any load data presented in a magazine titled, Handloader. This is seriously substandard work.
