now it becomes a crossover http://forums.nitroexpress.com/showflat....true#Post129368,
get Kynoch 8x50R softpoints

posibble made for india and the 315 lee enfield magazine rifle, here on Mannlicher M 95 clips

303 service cartridge, 8x50 R Kynoch softpoint, 8x50R DWM softpoint, 8x50R service cartridge
notice that the Kynoch cartridge have a longer and spitzer bullet and is in oal close to the 303 round(lee Enfield magazin lenght?)
my M 95 is in the hands of the gunmaker now and I can not try if it fits into the Mannlicher or if the 2 mm more make a difference.

headstamp is Kynoch 8mm

Manton/calcutta catalog with the service cartridge and the Kynoch round

the original Mannlicher M95 comes around in the world. Italia capture alot when WW 1 ended it give it to native troops in italian somaliland.

many of them were capture again when commonwealth troops conquered Italian Somaliland in 1942/43. this rifles were given to rear and native troops in india and nepal and also in south africa to make lee enfield rifles free for front line use.
still looking for old pics showing this rifles there and wonder if they end in the hands of local sportsman when the war was over.
the stoke of such rifles have an AOI stamp
