For awhile I’ve wanted to get my hands on a 9.3x64 Brenneke, and have gone as far as obtaining (an already sporterized) M98, found a barrel maker who produces chambering for that caliber, and ran into a MASSIVE problem finding reloading components. Bullets, no problem. There seems to be plenty...

@WebleyGreene455 The issue I think I am going to have is finding reloading dies for this caliber....when I researched 4-5 years ago, RCBS made them, but as of now all I can find is CH4d dies which seem to be back-ordered or "coming in stock soon" everywhere.

Hey guys! I am looking into putting together a rifle in the old 10.75x68 Mauser cartridge and am wondering what action I would need to be looking for to fit this round. I read that they can be chambered in standard large ring Mauser actions, but is that something I'd need to get off an old...
