I don't know exactly why, but this cartridge is very dangerous , more dangerous that the using of IMR 3031 for reloading big bore express cartridges ! The last one that i saw was a custom rifle Mauser 98 bolt action all bursted after 3 shots of a factory load from Walter Gehmann ! Luckely no victims !
In the meantime , I too have been reading too many stories with this Vom hofe caliber.
I think `LL think of another cartridge in the 6mm range..shooting 115grain bullets @ 3200 ft/sec.
The 6x62 Feres could also be a solution...or a german wildcat 6mmx68..
