CMP Vintage match 6-20 Central Jersey
btw, if you are shooting a bolt action.... HAVE STRIPPER CLIPS for the rapid fire portion. lol. It is 10 rounds, in 60 seconds, so unless you got strippers, about half your time is wasted on reloading.

You do not need to be a member of CJRPC to participate. Just show up day of the event. It is for Garands, M1's, 1903's, etc, however foreign vintage military are allowed. I would be tempted to try an SKS, however something with peep sights is a winner here. All shooting at 200 yards, no optics.

K98 Israeli Mauser carbine in 7.62mm
Ok, Actually that would be a a Spanish FR8 Training rifle in 308 . those are HK g3 sights and were used as trainers. I saw one at BA and it was in ok condition. Ah, you had me all excited for a moment. lol. I never pass up an Israeli.

K98 Israeli Mauser carbine in 7.62mm
that is not an israeli rifle. that is a a columbian one if I remember correctly, or I believe the Spanish ones were also made by FN.

K98 Israeli Mauser carbine in 7.62mm
they were designed for 7,62, however i am sure some folks are using 308 in them. Keep in mind, depending on condition of it, or how much wear the rifle has, it could be highly eroded that it doesn't matter. lol. My friend has one that will shot 7.62 fine, but if he put's .308 in it, the bolt gets stuck and he has to whack it with a 2x4 to get it open I am not surprised. You can shoot 223 in 5.56, but not the other way. Same with 308/7.62. You can shoot 7.62 in 308, but not 308 in 7.62 as 308 has higher pressures. Correct me if i am wrong.

what kind of bullets to use?
Wolf is very good ammo. It does require more cleaning however it is good and makes it up in price, as long as you do not need the brass to reload. HOWEVER, for rifle ammo, in a semi automatic, It will feed perfect in any AK, however in AR's, and Sig's.... there is a possibility that it will jam it up. A few of us on the forum went to Dix and had first hand experience with this. Guns with high tolerances, such as Colt's, Sig 556's, etc, will not cycle Wolf Ammo. Only brass cased stuff. Guns with more loose tolerances, such as Stag's, DPMS's, will cycle it just fine.

K98 Israeli Mauser carbine in 7.62mm
Israeli Mausers are either 1. captured k98's sold to Israel. or 2. FN made orders after the war of independence. originally all were in 8mm mauser, however after war of independence and invest of the FN FAL, most were converted to 7.62 nato. (hence why there is a 7.62 stamped into the heel of the rifle stock.) They were all either using standard k98 furniture if they were captures, or Israeli stocks on the later order rifles. Now the only thing is... over the years, they were remanufactured, or by importers were mixed and matched. Alot of them were sold to third world countries. So some Israeli imports came straight here in the 80's and 90's. Others were sent to Guatamala and then dug up in the fields and sent here more recently. On the older converted k98's, the israeli symbols would only be the star of David's on the receiver/barrel. On the FN order rifles, the IDF crest was on the large ring. 7.62 was stamped onto the receivers so signifiy a converted rifle. Condition varies greatly, however most are mixed parts, and 99% of the ones avail are converted. Not too long ago I was able to find an original 8mm one, however it is an FN receiver off of a rifle that was converted to 308, that was then pieced back to 8mm in Israel. Either serving on a kibutz or a special army unit. If your's is not full size k98 sized, it was sporterized, and to me is not worth $300. You can piece one together yourself for that much or less, to restore to original. Send me a pm with more details, will be able to help you to really determine what it is.

Do you clean your guns after every range session?
oooh, I am getting better. Rimfires get cleaned after every trip. Handguns, I try to clean after every trip, but the HK and SW 1911 I have waited 300 rounds or so before cleaning. Rifles, after every trip, in particular mil surplus if I shoot non commercial ammo. the bolt 308, ar and ak every trip.

Reloading to save $ ?
Another thing is to reload for calibers that use the same bullets. IE 308 bullets are also used in 7.5 Swiss.

Reloading to save $ ?
Dont reload to save money, reload to make shooting more enjoyable. Trust me, you will be shooting alot more once you start reloading. You will be buying more calibers once you start reloading. I started out with 9mm and 45 gap. now I am setup to reload: 9mm, 45Gap, 45 ACP, 357/38 special, 223, 308, 7.5 swiss, 7.62x54r, and I have 8mm Mauser and 6.5 Swedish dies on order. Pretty soon I will be having 338 lapua dies too. Reloading makes alot of sense for the more expensive calibers and most rifle calibers. The milsurplus calibers it doesnt make sense to reload to save money as you can easily pick up surplus stuff, however in any case, you can tailor a load to your liking. Some folks like to load hot loads to feel the rush, others prefer loads light enough to just cycle the gun, to reduce wear and obviously make shooting more enjoyable.

One Gun a Month
Nothing is stopping you from purchasing the firearm, you just cannot take possession of it. If you buy it from a dealer with a range, I am sure you can keep it there till the 30 days are up, or arrange visiting hours with your gun at your FFL. By possession I mean doing the paperwork to put it in your name. For instance I have 2 firearms people are holding for me until I get permits and 30 days after.
