Single stage reloaders - Eat your heart out
Gun show score today. 420 rds of turkish 7.92s for my Czech k98. Brass cases (if I want to start reloading), not steal core, and even brass stripper clips to boot. Sure beats the Romanian stuff.
.24 cents a shot. Can't beat that.

Yep Tabs. The more I shoot it, the more I like it.
Can't beat the value.

Nice score. I'm gonna have to start reloading. Just about finished the Mega Machine .308 AR and I would like to see how good the Remington is with a handload...so I need quantity and quality!
Hey, Did David end up driving the rental car back from Dallas? |

Berdan primers are hard to find, and the depriming prossess is a pain in the ass. Nice find though. |

There are a couple ways of doing it, but this explains the steps pretty clearly: Berdan to Boxer Conversion Method in Handloading Forum There are instructions on how to reload berdain primed cases here: Collecting and Shooting the Military Surplus Rifle (2005) - Surplusrifle.com I could see it maybe being worthwhile if the cases were completely unavailable, (or as an engineering exercise if that sort of thing blows your skirt up) but if it was me, I would just buy brand spankin' new Privi Partisan 8mm Mauser brass from Grafs for ~$40/100 (or $34/100 if you have a C&R  )
