Over the years, whenever I buy a firearm I also pick up the gear that is necessary for reloading that firearm. I've even gone so far as to (experimentally) reload ten rounds of .22 rimfire, just to prove to myself that I could.
So, this year I dedicated to getting a represetative group of military Mausers. This includes the 6.5 Swedish, 7mm Chilean, 7.65 Argentine, and 7.92 German chamberings.
The problem is, the only two things that these rifles have in common is that they don't like cast rounds and that they are all called Mausers.
If I bought the needed gear to reload all of these new acquisitions it would cost as much as another three or four rifles.
The question is, which of these calibers are worth the time and expense involved in reloading?
Remember, I am not a precision shooter - poor vision pretty much prevents this. I would be reloading for function, not for higher accuracy.
