9x57 mauser loads
Hello can anyone help me with loads for my 9x57 mauser.
I just get me an old Geco mauser m96. But i have some trubble finding loads for it in Norway.
If it`s possible i like to know loads for 220 grains bullets and Vihtavuori or Norma powder.
This because it`s hard to get Hodgdon and other brands here in Norway.
I hope that any of you can help me.

brayhavenSorry, I don't have any loads for it, but I ran across a set of Lyman dies for the 9X57 in my shop the other day. In case someone needs them.

richjHere's all the info I have on 9x57mm: I have NOT tried any of these loads. They're from AR and other sites on the net.
I also have Lyman 9mm Mauser dies but very few boxer primed cases. Good Luck
