MAUSER K98 AMMO CRACKED
Seen on the K98 forum guy who ruined his k43, cracked the receiver w/ this ammo.
MAUSER K98 AMMO FULL
In a semi or full auto, you will more than likely damage your gun or stock. In a Mauser it will throw brass and smoke in your face. There are many cases of 53 to 55 dated Yugo from both factory 11 and 12 that have had head failures. Sadly this is the ammo that has shown to have the most head failures also. Yugo m49 was very abundant for years, but had primers that many times needed two hits to go off, or a strong Wolff spring. The Ecuadorian is good ammo too, as is the Turk, but the Turk is mostly magnetic except for the late 49 dated, and 50 to 52 dated stuff. WW2 ORIGINAL Wehrmacht German K98 Mauser Ammo Pouch2. The stay away from is the Bulgarian 10 headstamp stuff. WW2 Original German ammo pouch this would make a great addition to that newly acquired K98 rifle. Also the Portuguese FNM, and also Canadian MM headstamped ammo is non corrosive and non magnetic like the Yugo. These rifles are generally made in the exact same factories as the K98, depending on era some were made a little better than most German military contract rifles, and they were never in any wars, at least large scale ones. I would rate it with the Yugo 80's stuff, but better since it comes with clips. Nothing really available in 8mm, but in 7mm and a few others. If you can find Yugo m38 ammo, that comes with the ribbon and red seal, this is excellent ammo too. I have shot thousands of rounds of German 8mm through my Mausers, and other weapons, and it's been 99% sure fire. The best answer is to reload (same rifle, same day): Seller & Belot and Norma both make a few 196 loads at ~2600 FPS, but availability is spotty, and while the price on the S&B is decent, the Norma stuff is up in the $2.50/round neighborhood. Nosler has a 200gr AccuBond or Partition at 2475 fps, and a 180gr Ballistic tip at 2600 FPS, but they are really proud of them, at about $2.50 per round. Hornady and Nosler seem to be the only US folks making "real" 8x57 ammo, Hornady has two options, a 195 hunting bullet and a 196 gr match, both 2500 FPS, which is pretty close to the original military load.
Federal's only option is even wimpier 170gr 2250 FPS. Remington's and Winchester's only offerings is 170 gr 2360fps. Naturally, they only sell the wimpy stuff in the US. For example, the "8x57" IS 198 gr FMJ is 2425 FPS, (essentially the 1934+ military load), but the "8MM Mauser" 198 gr FMJ is only 2180 FPS. Privi Partisan actually makes both, if you look at their online catalog, they have entries for both "8MM Mauser" and "8x57 IS", with the latter having a higher velocity for the same bullet. Generally, what you can get in the US is "8MM Mauser", and it the anemic SAMMI spec. To further muddy the waters, "8x57 IS" is often written as "8x57 JS, evidently because the Germans used a Gothic script, and the I looked like a J. For comemrcial stuff Privi makes decent ammo with good reloadable brass, but the stuff they sell here is underpowered.īackground: There are two specifications for what we call 8mm Mauser, the US SAMMI spec "8MM Mauser", which has a max pressure of 35K psi, and the CIP "8x57 IS" which has a max pressure of ~56K psi.
