That is a nice collection you have going there. Do you collect other Milsurps as well?

Ehh This was a thread showing a Swiss rifle collection. Appears to have bern hijacked by a completely different subject.

K31 at the top, 2 K11’s and an 1889. Years of production span 1892-1943.

Damn, that is a serious list of, shall we say, eclectic cartridges.
Oh yeah. Love my milsurps.

Since I reload for so many rifle calibers, I keep a small stock (100) on hand. And a backup stock of commercial ammo, usually at least 500 per caliber. Reload for .223, 6.5x52, 6.5x55, 7x57, 7.62x39, 7.5x55, 7.92x57, 7.62x54r, 8x56r, .303, don’t reload for my handguns.

Nothing will change with me. As far as ammo. I reload for every weapon I own.

I have a VEPR in 7.62x54r with 20” barrel. Thinking about removing the pinned thread protector and installing an AK muzzle break. Are there NJ compliant implications here ??

Found this red coded primer in a box of CCI BR4 (coded yellow) primers. It lacks the stamped “B” on the bottom. Is this a standard small rifle primer that got through ??

Final update:
Using meticulous QC, I reloaded more .223 using the gauge mentioned. Worked wonders. Lesson learned. Zero cycling or ejection issues. Accuracy was good at 100 yds. for an old shaky guy. Thanks for the input guys.

9mm carbine

I do. It was one round got through and jammed my gun. It just goes to show that QC is important. It was a fail on my part.

Yeah I reload myself. My first venture into .223. Brass is PMC. All my experience is with milsurps. 6.5mm up to 8mm. Swiss, Swede, Yugo, Spanish etc. I ordered a slotted case gauge from Sheridan Engineering to ensure my reloads are in spec. Semi-autos much less forgiving than bolt rifles.

This is true.

Amazing how a tiny variance in shoulder height makes all the difference in the world to a semi-auto gun. The round on the left cycles fine. The one on the right ...... not !!! Both reloads.

They can't stop me from reloading.

Contacted Lee directly. They stopped making both calibers. 6.5 Swedish in 2015 and 8mm Mauser in 1997. (Lee Loaders that is)
Thanks for all the responses.
eBay is my best chance.

You're looking for the old Lee handloader correct? Where you use a mallet to drive the brass into the die and a punch to knock it out.
Yes that's the one.

Has anyone here ever seen a Lee Loader kit in 6.5x55 Swedish or 8mm Mauser ?? Saw an old one on eBay but was sold, so I assume they made them at one time.

It would be interesting if everyone on this board applied around the same time and told their stories to prove a point.

Number of Rounds per Range Trip

Since I’m always tinkering with handloads plus I shoot 90% milsurp bolt rifles, not a lot. I’ll typically take 2-5 rifles and run 20-50 rounds through each. If I take my AR and/orHi-Point 9mm, that number goes up. I reload for every rifle I own. .223/5.56 to 8mm Steyr.
