Have you had any issues with the bores opening up after contouring.

Thanks , I'm working on tapering a barrel blank, anyone use the green mountain barrels? They're cheap, hope it shoots as well as the benchmark barrel does

Thanks, I think if Indiana didn't have these goofy gun rules there would be a lot less reloaders and wildcat development. I never messed with turning barrels and forming brass, it's forced me to jump into gun and ammo development and it's fun. I'm hooked

I need to test with faster powders but I'm pretty happy with the speed with h4895

Thanks, it's about 5/16 and seems to be very accurate

I had a reamer made, don't know about the 30/30 case

The case is 1.8 long but the neck is .320 long. The case is blown out with AI shoulder and a minimum taper.

I weighed the cases again I think I did it right this time. I got about 56 to 57 gr. Of water. About the same as a 308 case

I was trying to weigh the water capacity of the 358 mosin wildcat and it seems to be about 55 gr. , but I also weighed a 308 case and it seemed the same. What is the accurate way of doing this?

The neck length after trimming to 1.8 is .320 long

Not sure, I'll check it. I know I can put 46 gr of h4895 in it without being a compressed load

I was wondering has anyone tried recutting the chamber back on a 358 win to 358 Hoosier

Post by dannewton61 on Feb 3, 2016 11:57:05 GMT -5
OK about .320

It's not as hard as I thought it would be, I made a wildcat 358 mosin build, but having a lathe is a must.

I've always wondered if a Moslin M-44 could be re-barreled for such rimmed cartridges like: the .30-30, .444 Marlin, or even cartridges like the .25-35 & the .219 Zipper. It's not to hard to rebarrel a mosin, like any bolt gun. The only thing that's a little bit of a problem is the extractor cut.
