I've used N110 in .308, 7.5 x 55 (200 gr. Lee), 7.62x54 (185 Lee) and others. I had no issues except it does best in high pressure loads, probably due to the deterrent coating. Its outstanding in .44...

They are BA (British association) threads.
I'll try to send you a picture of the size chart from the armourer's manual. It looks like the large screw is a 2BA and the small one 6BA.

The article would have been better placed in Rifle magazine. There was little technical information about the cartridge, nothing about case capacity for instance.

Thanks everyone. I've sent manual to Mike c/o wolfe publishing.

I've been using briwax for sometime. At the moment I am using it with the lee .312 tl bullet (intended for the sks) in my k31. I just push the bullet into the .310 size die to seat and crimp the gas...

This is the Lee. 309-200 gr. at just over 2000 fps at 100 yards. Rifle is a .308 match with a 1 in 14 Bartlin barrel. Shot prone with aperture sights and single point sling. Shot off a rest...

I've shot cast in my 7.62 match rifles out to 600 on occasion. The bullet is the 200gr Lee loaded to around 2000 fps.
Forum: CB Loads / Military Rifles
They are not the same! Look at the Vihtavuori loading data sheets. Essentially N110 has similar applications to H110 or Winchester 296. N120 has similar applications to Rl7.
I've used both these...

I am currently working with this bullet. It works, but has to be seated quite deep.

Look at Lovex powders. Accurate 5744 is Lovex D060. Lovex S040 appears to be a clone of Alliant 2400. Both work great in my K31 with Lee 150gr and 200gr bullets. I found that the nose of. 312-185 too...

Mine shoots great with the Lee 200gr. I use a .310 sizer that barely touches the sides.

Privi partisan are making 7.92x33 brass loaded ammo.
Forum: Military Rifles
I used to load 7.92x33. NEI did the mould, it had the proper nose profile, functioned perfectly and shot to the sights out to 500 yards. Best powders and loads were basically the same as for 7.62x39.

They were marketed as the "Envoy " target rifle and the "Enforcer" for the military and police market.

You need to watch this BBC documentary, presented by Michael Palin that tells of the killing that went on right up to final seconds of the war.
It's probably available on YouTube.

I'm currently using baking parchment. I've previously had success with common grease proof paper, but it seems it's all Teflon coated nowadays and that doesn't work at all.

Cartridge brass is no good for casting. Essentially brass (copper and zinc) alloys come in 2 classes, Alpha and Beta. Alpha brass has less than 37% zinc and is very malliable, which is why its used...
