Hi all

Well, more questions from me about old calibers.

Thank you all for guiding and helping me

Got over a Sauer sidelock drilling in 16/16 and 11.5x65R.

Any one here who use that caliber or have used it?

Is it a black power caliber?

Hi Vegard_dino!

I don't know this caliber (could it be the 7x65R necked up?), but I must ask: where do you find these oldies from?
No-one asks about as many exotic calibers as you do. It makes a most stimulating read to view the responses by the forum members, so please keep them coming!

Hi Schauckis

Thank you..I am a bit afraid that I am asking to much about less know calibers....

Hope not.

So, yes, I will keep em coming!!

I am not sure if it is. I did se a drilling for sale with the caliber, it is a Sauer, in 16-16 and the 11.5*65R.....

Where I find them?? Hehhe, well, from old German catalog´s, book´s about hunting and in adds for old rifle, gun sale.

There was a 11.15x65R Expr. check the proof marks if it is nitro or black powder

cheers

Hi Freischuetz

Thank you for the reply.
I am asking the one who sell the drilling about that information now, but I do not think he know´s what I mean.
Maybe he can send me some photo´s.

But, you say it was a Expr one?
Any information on what bullet weight and so?

Thanks for helping me

Hello all

Well, got the reply back..it is a black power caliber.....aa..to bad. I was hoping it was a "lost" large caliber smoke less, that will be great for deer, boar and so in Europe....

Have to keep looking then.
But, a interesting caliber it is..and, with I got some interesting information about some other forgotten calibers...but, that wil be a new topic..
