Protruding Primers 9.5 x 57 MS

Indeed.

The only reason I took up reloading initially was to feed the M1910.

I was into black powder at the time, so it was sort of a natural progression. There are whole other levels of involvement when firing the loads that you have crafted yourself as opposed to just feeding 'store bought' to one's rifle.


From the 1939 Stoeger, and every bit as true today:

Brand new 9.5x57 MS Qual Cartridge brass at 44gr of IMR 3031

It sounds like that is a pretty standard load
You need to cut the primer pocket on qualicart brass as they are not correct. I had the same issue which after much headache I recut the pockets- problem solved! This after I foolishly even trimmed the firing pin!

thanks for your reply bob , is it feasible to build a 444 on a P14/M17 , or is the no4 enfield easier to build? i know where i can buy a lothar walther barrel in 44, 1-38 twist , but i think with a barrel crown of .650" the profile is too light .

I have quite a bit of 458 win mag brass, most of it new. How much are you looking for?
