Very nice. What's it like to shoot?jjvc wrote:I have the M95 infantry rifle and that ammo is a wee bit pokey in it! Last time at Diggle i was shooting a cast boolit load that showed promise and was a lot easier on the shoulder. :mrgreen:
PeterN2 did a good ammo foto post over on MAH some time ago, he has some Nazi stamped rounds/clips too....

Sandgroper, its very pleasant to shoot with the cast boolits loads and the ex mil stuff shoots fine but is a bit heavy in the recoil.
