Does anyone have any experience with this cartridge? A friend of mine has just purchased one and we would like to know if there is a reloading manual that we could buy with info on this cartridge. If not any info would be great

Thanks

DPM,
I was looking seriously at a pretty MS carbine in this caliber a couple years ago. Old Western Scrounger had some ammo avilable then. Also ther was an article in "Handloader" or maybe "Rifle" magazine describing case forming procedures and loads a couple of years ago. As I remember typical velocities were around 2100 fps and there was a cautionary note that in the lightweight carbines the actions had been known to shoot themselves out of the stock under recoil.

Thanks for all the info. I will try to find the an old copy of those magizines. My friend has already ordered ammo from OWS I will let you know how bad the recoil is in this light carbine when the ammo arives.

Thanks
