Carl Lewenrenz 9x74
#42006 - 21/11/05 02:00 AM

There is a double rifle for sale here in denmark!
The caliber is a 9x74 and NOT 9.3x74!
Using Dixon book on european catridges, I have located the 9x74 to be a Foerster made between 1900-1903!
The gun is appraised to around $48oo on an auction here the 29Th of Nov.
The caliber seems to be a really oddball caliber, where I have to have specialty dies made, custom brass, bulletswaging, and i wonder if it is worth that much, and i should wait until a double shows up where availabilty of components is made allready?

The auction company is called "Brunn & rasmussen"
and the action# is 750/151 and can be found under "våben" http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v739/rigbymauser/riffel1.jpg

I'm not sure about the cartridge but there are plenty of 9 mm bullets being made. Does the rifle call out a specific bullet weight or loading?

Dies would be a custom job and workng up the loads would be work or fun, depending on you.
