    New rcbs 8mm-190 sp

    Just wishfull thinking? I have the 30-180 sp and like it, cast the right size and shoots very well. Can anyone think of a reason that RCBS doesn"t make one for all of us 8mm mauser surplus rifle shooters

    RCBS seems to want to limit the sizes they will produce, even the special order molds. SAECO still offers an 8mm mold in 190 gr. weight.Robert

    They do offer a .323 FN stating 170 gr. But I bet it will drop heavier than that. Boolits I have from a .321 FN mould for the 32 spl. weigh in at 175 gr. bare WW/soft alloy.Not exactly what you want but should work well.

    I've been having good luck with the two heavies from Midsouth (Max and Karabiner)-Lees, and the 185 lee with 2400 and Trail boss.

    I have the 32-170 for my 32 spl. sized at 323 shoots great out of my yugo m48. I also picked up yugo 2447,but haven't had a chance to try cast out of it yet, and if a yugo 98 comes along down the road I might be looking for a new mould. All the ones mentioned look pretty good. Thanks.

    Accurate molds has some great designs for your 7,92. AND in virtually any diameter your old warhorse may require.
