This should prevent errors by any one that gets a hold of the rifle in later years. Get a set of stamps and mark the barrel using your own nick name for your wildcat.
The information I found years ago on turn of the century German proof testing expressed the figures in Metric Atmospheres so I'm not sure if I got the figures down exactly right. Mauser actions of this general time period were normally proofed to 58,000 CUP, with the pressures for Model 98 actions raised to (IIRC) 74,000 or possibly 78,000 CUP a bit later on. 308 barrels), but the 7.65X53 isn't a hot cartridge so the increase is unlikely to be beyond the safety margin of the action. 3085 bore would raise pressures by a noticable degree ( about 7-8% according to what a former Ruger employee posted about a test run on. So this milspec ammo at least was intended to allow for variations in bore size or bores partly choked with metal fouling.Ī. 312 just in front of the crimping cannelure. 314 but the body of the bullet tapered to. I've miked pulled bullets from some relic 7.65X53 and found them to be gently tapered. What say you all good idea or not? I will see if I can get some pics later. The barrel now fitted to the reciver, head space not an issue since I will be forming brass, and the bolt wont close on a factory 06 round. I decided to go ahead since I have to turn the shank down and rethread anyway, I took. Thats a little more than I want on a small ring action. I have a FN take off barrel thats never been fired in cal 30-06. I know the barrel shank on the is diffrent that other small ring Mausers so after some measuring I find its. So I mounted it in my trusty reciver wrench and held the wrench in my vice and took my 24" pipe wrench to the barrel expecting a fight. To start I had heard horror stories about getting the old barrel off (its been on there over 100 years). I love the lines on the 91, I have a coupe that shoot awesome, so I just cant let this one waste away. So I have this old sporterized 1891 Argentine, stock cut barrel pitted beyond being able to hold a decent "pattern".
