a good example who important it is to have not only very good pics of the things I sell in a net auction but also know what it is and named so other can find it. got it for a 1 euro a box because the seller had it as "8mm hunting ammo"

its a post WW 2 made sporting cartridge by Österreichische Jagdpatronenfabrik (austrian hunting cartridge factory) in Kramsach/Tirol. I dont know if they made it also with a softpoint but a FMJ was better than no ammo I guess and it was labeled as "hunting cartridges". btw,I have to look now for the softpoint load also!
Kramsach was a black powder mill since 1680 starting made hunting ammo after 1949 but I dont know how long. doubt this firm survive into the 1970s any information about this maker would be welcome.

headstamp is "ÖJP 1 8mm"

the box is labeled in german, english and french

1935 Bulgarian surplus, Kynoch, DWM, the new ÖJP and a handload made with a 9,3x53R and a 8x50R Lebel die set

this is another box seems to be made by the same firm that looks more military alike. could be that the "hunting cartridge" was just a trick for making ammo. something that many of the WW 2 victors dont like to see in the 1950s I believe.

the austrian police had the mannlicher M 95 up to the 1960s, here is austrian border police near the hungarian border while the hungarian revolution of 1956.

some weeks ago there was a Sellier&Bellot load for sale in another auction I miss

seems also like a post WW 2 box, the seller had mix the 8mm Mann.(8x50R) with 8,2M.Sch (8x56 MS)

what I look now are pics showing a box and the headstamp of the 315 india. if someone from india could help?
