Pretty sure the main thing is to be mindful that the rim of each cartridge stays ahead of the last round when loading.

I've always followed that rule myself.

Which is why THIS baffles me:

The way he put those in, they appeared to line up properly, being 2 at a time.
With a Mauser, it is imperative they do.
I recall having a rifle that they got 'stuck' in due to one rim ahead of the one above. However, I do not remember the particulars - the rifle nor the ctg. Happened in the 70's????I wonder if it was a P14? could have been. & my sloppy loading.
