I have a 43 Mauser 1871 I want to shoot bp in. What bullet do I shoot. It has .454 grooves and .433 lands. Do I need to fill the barrel with the bullet? Or can I shoot .446. Hawk bullets because they are jacketed.
It’s a special problem to be sure. I could PP but to what diameter? Or sell the gun. It’s a m1871 barreled action with custom stock and set triggers. 25 inch barrel, pristine bore in very good shape. Professionally done hunter or stalking rifle and antique.
I really just want to know what to shoot in it.
