could not get them to fly in a 222R although they are short enough.

I still have some of his 3rd generation KJG in 7mm, 105 gr at 3550 fps out of a 7 RM with RL 17, most precise bullet I ever found, no hold over for varmints to 350 y. Perfect for longrange wolf in the north with the bait in the middle of the fraser river.

I love my 12 GA, if you were not on the other side, I'd love to take it.

mine had one

2208 is Varget if I remember correctly, great powder for the Bock -cartridge!

416 Ruger?

brass, bullets and primers need no firearms license in Germany

there were some nice guns in his shop....

on the reloading database 416 still exists

difficult once they bolt face and extractor have been widened to .532 magnum dimensions

9.3x62, 1938 DWM Mauser, Heym Match grade barrel, 50 cm, Ralf Martini made stock of Birds Eye maple, Recknagel safety, Timney trigger, shoots 155 gr MJG as a deer and moose load.

How many of those clips are AI?

Varget is very very close to RL15, a good choice. CFE223 is the slighly slower burning ball-powder version, but gives more speed in many instances

I find the NX8 have a very small eyebox and need optimal cheekweld. I am much happier with Leupold VX6 1-6 ( 416 rigby) and Vx 6 2-12 on a 9.3x375, much better field of vision. Maybe not quite as robust.

you are dealing with a number of variables and without pressure testing ( which generally is easier to obtain in Europe) you can only guess where you are pressure wise. Your best approximator is measuring bullet speed ( Garmin Xero's are comparably cheap) The major variables are -brass (...
