Post subject:  Reduced loads
I reloaded some ammo for my Dutch Steyr Mannlicher last Monday.
Reloaded 20 cartridges just for testing purposes.
I reloaded with 5 different loads, so I can see what bullet performs best.
I'll take the best two loads and start reloading and testing until I find the right load.
I will use VihtaVuori N110 powder.
Starting load will be 16.5 grains and I will work up to 17.1 grains (reduced loads).
I will use some cotton as a filler to keep the powder against the primer when the rifle is in horizontal position.
Got some range time coming up on Sunday.
Let's see how this "boolit" performs.

Of Course........pictures.

Original and handmade.

I never use a clip when shooting my Hembrug rifle.
I load each cartridge manualy.

I'll keep you all posted.


Met vriendelijke groet,

I hope this works out OK Michael.
I'm pretty confident though.
I use N110 in my Mosin Nagants with great results.
Let's hope My Dutch M95 likes this powder too, so I can use one type of powder in all my rifles except the Beaumont and the Vetterli of course.
Only BP in these rifles. :D

I'll get back on this coming Sunday.


Met vriendelijke groet,
