What is the best source for 8mm Mauser ammo? I haven't shot mine in years.

Not sure of a source, but look for Yugo 8mm ammo from the 50s. Yes, it is corrosive, but good brass cased ammo.

I am not crazy about the steel cased Romanian 8mm mainly because it uses a 150gr bullet. 8mm should be a 196-198gr bullet..... IMO. Smile

Send a PM to Gitschlag. He had several cases he was selling.

I PM'd him. But, we started cleaning it this morning, and the barrel may be shot out. We'll have to finish cleaning it tomorrow before we know for sure. If it's shot out, that action will become a custom build, one day. I'm just not sure what caliber yet.
