Re: Defourny 8x60 S - Belgium Sporter Mauser

Herbert, Good decision. I am sure you will enjoy this rifle & will find it adequate for most of your hunting.

You can use the RCBS dies but change the expander ball to 323 from the current 318.

I have no experience with this particular round but it is not very far from a 30'06 with 200 gr bullet or a 318 Wsley Richards or a mild load 9.3 with light bullets.

Regarding a 30'06 - I have seen Guild German Muser 98s with claw mounts & scope for about $800 to $1200 on the web. That would be a nice hunting rifle & even better than an FN (unless you want a modern stock, scope etc.)
