Thread: Beginner question: Using pistol projectile for 7.62x54r?

I'm a beginner and I have reloaded ~ 100rnds for my mosin (7.62x54r) using Hornady .312 150grs, 42gr of AR2208 with good results.

I see Delta Mike have some pistol projectiles restocked and I see some .313 115gr projectiles...

Would it work? Could it be......dangerous? Do I need a pistol powder for it or AR2208 would work just fine? Any idea what charge weight I should start with and how far deep to seat the projectile...

Cheers.
