    The OAL length thing is simply not an issue - with 44-40 you have to crimp them, and the bullets have crimp grooves in the right place obviously. You crimp into the crimp groove. If you decide to...

    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...

    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...
