I also found a 1938 DMW ammo catalogue online: http://gigconceptsinc.com/files/DWM-1938-Export-Catalog-tan-brown-cvr.pdf
Thank you! It looks like I have been trying to push my rifle too fast. I was trying for 2000fps/~610m/s.
The picture of the Vierling appears to be of the original WCF case, not the later Hornet, judging by the shoulder location.
On top of that, even the Euro .22 Hornet round (ie: RWS) was loaded to about 2,350fps MV, today, even.
Seems to me, the WCF had a 45gr. cast bullet at about 1,450fps - if memory serves.
