Re: Mannlicher Schoenauer in the 1939 Stoeger catalog

Ballistics of MS Cartridges from 1939 Stoeger Catalog

First, the 'Constructive Ballistics from page 51;






Note that the M1903 cartridge is referred to as 6.3mm (not 6.5) and the M1908 is listed as 8.2mm (not 8mm). The .30-'06, 7X64 and 8X60 are 'High Velocity' rounds for M1924 and 'M1925' actions.

DWM ballistics - Page 292 has the '6.5X53 M-Sch.'(DWM 477) and the '8X56 M-Sch.'(DWM 528);


























Page 293 has the '9X56 M-Sch' (DWM 491E), '9.5X57 M-Sch' (DWM 531) as well as a 'Closed Season' load for DWM 477 ('6.5X53 M-Sch')































English Ballistics from pages 288 - 289.












Detail of MS cartridges;






































Note that 9.5X57 MS and .375 RNE have different powder charges - 43 grains cordite for the Brit.(as the barrel of my 1922 proofed M1910 is marked), 45 grains for the Mannlicher Schoenauer 9.5 load.

An interesting note regarding 8mm cartridge (non) interchange from page 291;






Detail fron page 263;






And regarding berdan primers for DWM from page 299;






With hope that all will be enjoyed and shared,
Wado.
