Attention New Members and those new registering! We had a lot of problems with spammers and bot attacks with the stock measures provided by the software. The 7 for registration was a fix that we came up with on our own that has worked quite well. Yes it is a PIA for both you and administration to put you onto your chosen username. If you come back on and your login does not work retry with your username without the 7. Thanks for joining us from the administration.

Don,

Thanks, but I don't think we are on the same page. The photos look like 1.15 x 58R Spanish Remington.

I should have been more specific. I was looking for the 8x56R drawings for the M95 Steyr cartridge.

Greg

Thanks for posting these-
John Donnelleys ( The Manual of Cartridges Conversions) drawings leave a lot to be desired occasionally, they are not exact and there are a few errors but it is an excellent source- Ken Howell (Custom Cartridges) are much more exact but pretty sterile other wise compared to Donnelleys included notes and suggestions. Both should be used with Barnes ( Cartridges of the World) but Barnes reloading suggestions should be used only as a last resort and with much caution. If I had to choose between Donnelleys and Howells I would choose Donnelleys because "buy factory brass" just dose not always cut it in a pinch.
