I have never had difficulty shooting old factory ammo, as far as it being unsafe. The only problem I've had is misfires - both with factory and handloads if old enough. I do not shoot ammo I purchase - you don't know for certain what is is in it. The pointed ammo appears to not be loaded with a normal 9.2x72 bullet. I would not fire it, without pulling those bullets, then reloading with known components. Mic the bullets and weight them. The Euro ammo is more than likely Berdan primed. I would find boxer primed brass and use that, however many loaders USED to load Berdan primed brass, NP. Proper de-priming tools are needed for reloading them along with the proper sized primers. Slugging the bore is necessary before loading this round. Quote: I have seen this done with BP ctgs. like the .577-450, however I would not suggest doing this with the 9.3x72. |
