Hi Johan,
for the moment I`m very busy but meanwhile some further
details to my Mauser rifle.
We have the gun since around 100 years in our family, but I dont know who was the gunmaker for this custom made rifle.The gun no. is 15662 and the barrel length is 580mm.The receiver is case hardened and works perfectly.The barrel is made from KRUPP steel and is nitroproofed around
1900 and also actualy in Ferlach-Austria.
I use original RWS cartriges with production no.45VQ.These are full jacket bullets .423 - 347 grains.
The velocity ft/sec is 0-yds=2230, 50=2070,100=1920,150=1790,200=1670.
The energy ft/lbs is 0-yds=3830, 50=3300,100=2840,150=2470,
200=2150.
P.S.:The barrel form is 1/3 octagonal and than round with a full machined rail.
regards Johann
