    With the long throat in the 7x57's, it means you have to ignore the book and just load them up till they have the correct velocity. ""Correct velocity"" in a Mauser 98 or a modern rifle, is 2900fps...

    I think I enjoyed the black powder more than anything. All of my red deer with .44-40 were black powder. (And they died just as quickly as if I'd shot them with a .270) But I shot a lot of...

    Black powder is very little problem in a Winchester 92 chambered in .44-40. Just pour some water down the bore after shooting and wipe it out with a couple of patches and then an oiled patch - and...

    I never got any good accuracy with lead bullets until I started casting my own. (And then I could control the alloy and the lube, all of which is important.) That photograph reminds me of why.
