Hey gang, just got my late grandfather's Muaser 1891. It's not worth a whole lot becaused it's been "sporterized"; some "person" cut off some of the wood, etc. And I have about 50 rounds of Norma 15pgr ammo for it, and about 10 rounds of 1945 army surplus ammo for it. It is all very old stuff. One of the boxes got wet and the bullets ard discolored (white). Should I risk fireing them? He appereantly used some of them, as I also have 10 empty surplus cases amd about 6 empty Norma cases.
I went ahead and orderes the RCBS 30-06 to 765 forming die from midway, along with the Lee 3 die set that comes with the shell holder and powder dipper on sale. Also ordered some brass for 30-06 and some Spear 150gr sp bullets.
So I need to figure out what powder to buy and what gr to use. All the data I have is really old or off the web. I ordered the new Lee book, but don't know if it is in there. Does lymann habe it? horndry 3rd has a bdief list, as does the 1986 NRA book. But those sources are 20-30 years old. Any help/hints/tricks would be swell!
