A while back I put up a post trying to figure out what this little fella is, but no one can find any known cartridge that exactly matches it. It's basically an 8mm-06 but with the shoulder moved forward maybe a quarter inch and a short neck.
from left to right: 8x57, chamber cast, Fireformed case, 30-06.
It seems hornady will make me a custom die set for around $170, but I was wondering if it would be possible to load for it with maybe a 8mm-06 or 8x57 neck sizing and bullet seating die? Or is dishing out the cash and waiting on custom dies the only option?
