[QUOTE="Hard rock, post: 2653625, member: 116620"] They are 1-7.5 , I’m not telling you too load this , but my pet load is 47 grs of H4350 with the 125 gr Nosler Partition and a cci250 . I have started loading Hammers exclusively and now using N560 . I have a load for my carbine with the 109 Hammer absolute that literally has 13 in of rifling not counting chamber and I’m right at 2800 fps , no pressure easy bolt lift. You will not get in trouble with the 96 loading according too the manuals I’m a very experienced hand loader and know when not too push the limits The 93 mausers are built about the same but just didn’t have the heat treating the Swedish mausers have . According too PO Ackley the small ring mausers blow up at about the same as the 98s they don’t have the 3rd safety lug and the bolt is not as secure in the blow up tests .reguardless of this post be careful loading any older Mauser , some are better than others , there can be issues headspace , fatigued metal from a lot of use ,corision ,set back on the lugs and what I cal Tinkeritis . Good luck on your shooting. [/QUOTE]
