This is a very important part of reloading - to keep your case volume under control. There is a reason why the reloading manuals state which brand of brass they use - simply because their data is only applicable when you use the same brand. In this case as shown in the video, things become a bit more difficult. This is because there are different weight classes of Norma 222 Remington brass and ...

    Tjockt botten? Ultimate Reloader (trog jag det var) har gjort jämförelser mellan olika hylsor. Vissa tillverkares hylsor hade ganska stor spridning på intern volym, andras väldigt liten. Nu kommer jag inte ihåg om Norma var med men Lapua hade åtminstone nästan noll differens. Visserligen kostar Lapuas tomhylsor nästan lika mycket som andras färdigladdade FMJ patroner, jag tror jag såg dem för 109€/100st i 222 Rem...

    As a 6.5SE addict (7 rifles), I loved the authenticity of the 1890's rounds, plus the coffee break (so Swedish). Btw, the Norma 143 grain Oryx HPBT absolutely loves my Sako S20 in 6.5 PRC. I use their cases almost exclusively for reloading. Thank you, please do more. My daughter lives in Kungsangen, north of Stockholm, so I might just come shoot with you one day.

    I’d consider myself a purest in many ways when it comes to milsurps but I’m also a deer hunter and respect the history of these rifles. That said, part of the history is sporterization whether people like to admit it or not. I am a sucker for a tastefully done sporter and quite frankly would love to find a Mauser such as this. I have an all original 1912 Swedish M96 but still find myself drooling over yours! Stunning rifle, perfectly done imo, and a guaranteed shooter

    Very nice rifle with a problem. The scope is contacting the barrel, which needs to be fixed post haste. Simple fix with some rings or bases. The open sights need to be removed for better scope clarity. Otherwise, it's a nice rig.

    The Creedmoor was a new idea, with a faster twist, higher pressure, and a shorter action, it was improved by new technology, and you also could do the same with the 6.5 ×55, so why have they not, the only one that was available at the time was the Creedmoor with out waiting weeks, but it works and so does the 6.5 ×55 Sweden.

    • @NordicRifleman
      @NordicRifleman 2 місяці тому

      You can easily obtain 2900 fps with a ELD-X 143 in the 6.5 Swede if handloading and using a modern strong action. For a Swedish person there is very little point to get a Creedmoor.

    The real Swedish Mauser actions M94,96,38 built by Carl Gustaf and Husqvarna used a special high quality tough Swedish steel that was better than any German steel. Even the “Swedish” Mausers built in Germany were required to use that steel. Those actions were proof tested to almost 63,0000 psi. With those actions the hand loaded 6.5x55 will leave the 6.5 Creedmoor in the dust, especially with 140 grain and heavier bullets because the bullets can be seated farther out to take full advantage of Swede’s case capacity. I have one of the “Sporterized by Kimber of America Inc., Clackamas OR. USA.” Carl Gustafs Stads M96 built in 1914. Barrel cut to 22”, lathe turned down to a medium sporter contour to eliminate the old military mid-barrel hump. Mounted in a Ramline synthetic stock. Not as aesthetically pleasing as that SAKO but with classic form and very serviceable. It came with a Tasco 2-10x40, which I upgraded to a little bit better something else. All numbers match. Came to me with a bunch of ammunition about 5 or six years ago for $500.00 USC. Great 1MOA shooter even with inexpensive PPU ammunition. For those of you who don’t know the story about the Sporterized by Kimber Swedes you’ll have to look that up. Happy hunting boys and the!😊
