Re: My search is over - my newly acquired 11.2x72 Schuler Mauser

Rolf,
What is the case dimensionally compared to say the .404Jeffery, can it be made from any other case?
Interesting question; the .404 Jeffery is a bit longer than the 11.2x72 so that would be no issue.
I just measured both cases base diameter: Norma .404 Jeffery is ~.540" and Bertram 11.2x72 is ~.533" (rebated rim of course).
Thus it seems that, depending upon how generous the chamber might be, that the .404 could be swaged down and with a little lathe work on base & rim it could be made to work just fine?
