kuduae if you really want or need a .404
eagle 27, not kuduae, but Gundog01 thinks about rechambering a 10.75x68 to .404.I don't need or want a .404, especially not on an opened up standard length action. I have a Mauser in an even more exotic chambering, 10.75x63, forerunner of the x68. And I have a very satisfactory rifle on a ZKK action in .416 Rigby, besides many more, so I feel no earthly need for a .404.
Sorry kuduae I got the OP mixed up.
Your 10.75x63 would be quite rare, I recall shooting my friends one at a range in Germany, can't recall the rifle but do recall we were having issues with hangfires with the loading he was trying out but I'm short on the powder and bullet details too. I shot so many different cartridges in firearms that two of my good friends owned that I lost track of which was which and back then they were all mostly exotic cartridges that I hadn't heard of before.
It was my friend with the 10.75x63 who gave me a quantity of RWS 347gr soft point bullets and a couple of boxes of new RWS .404 Jeffery cases for my .404.
