sporterized military Mauser , rest as Lüderitz said.

Lutz has died. Plane crash.

where are you finding LRM primers???

250 gr in .366 for PG/moose etc also in .366: 286 or 300 gr solids and PP and maybe hydrostatics 180 gr PP and RN for .323/8x57JS

I use H/IMR 4895 for the light monolithics ( 255 gr), H100v for 350gr Barnes TTSX and RL19 for 400 gr (h4831 would work too)

there is a range price in of bullets , on the cheap side there are some 350 gr Speers available again after a 5 year hiatus, 1.20/bullet, then there are Hornady DGS/DGX and barnes, about 3CA$/piece. then there is A-frames and partitions at 4$/p. Nosler solids 8$ , Woodleighs not there.

I have a standard length FN Mauser, 1970’s vintage, rebarreled to 375 Ruger. Lots of work done on the old stock , bedding etc. Unfortunately it has now split lengthwise in front of the pistol grip forward to mid action. Pic to follow. It probably could be repaired, but that is not my choice. I...
