Hi Gents

For those that wont let a old rifle rust in the safe, a little info on the 10.75x68.

Cases are available , at fair prices, in South Africa. They are made to order by Ken Stewart of Stewarts gunsmiths in the town of Polokwane.

He also makes solids and very good softs on order.

320gr Mono metal bullets are made by Impala bullets, also in SA. In fact, MOST bullet makers are prepared to make you .423 bullets if you ask them nicely!

All of these companies will happily send your order to wherever you are.

Should you need any contact details, please do not hesitate to ask!

Hope this little post helps!

Does Mr Stewart have a website? Would be nice if we had more information about his products.

Good hunting!

I have said elsewhere that if i started my gun building again I would build a 6.5x68,8x68 and 10.75x68 (I know it is a different case).

Dear Sir's

The only contact detail I have for Ken Stewart is the following:

E Mail: stewbullets@mweb.co.za

Tel 018 298 6779 (please note that this is and SA number, check local area codes for SA)

As an aside, I loaded up a few 400gr Hornady DGX loads as a test fire. Seated at the normal canulure, magazine length was no problem. 66gr of S335 SOMCEM gave 2100fps in my FN. Quite memorable recoil as well, as the rifle is very light. No pressure, no compression, and good accuracy!

Please start lower in older rifles.
