Has any one here played with reloading the 7.65 L ammo. I need the spec's on the shell casing and the bullet. I'm wondering if I can trim down 30 carbine for this pistol?

I have 3 big fat reloading books and not a one has anything about this caliber.

Thanks

Mark you have a pm on reloading. Now that you are using French equipment do you wish to surrender now or after tea?

Hmm

After tea and a dram or two of whiskey would be good!!

I'll check the pm. I have been searching on line for 2 hours now with nothing.

Thanks

you might be able to make cases by reducing the rim on 32 Smith and Wesson Long, but I don't know whether it has an extractor recess, however; it might be easier to order them from Buffalo arms as 7.65 MAS.
This is listed as the same thing as the 32 French long.
$44/100

I think that would be the wise choice. I forgot that 30 carbine has a slight taper to it! Thanks again for the info and link! Also this is for my French 1935S pistol I just bought.

Thanks
