Alright, I pulled it apart and cleaned decades of gunk out of the receiver, will pull down the bolt later, and maybe remove the scope mount to get more data on the action (SN 99175)...factory stamps...
Well, got a new to me wildcat, gun show score
muaser 98 action, chambered in 244 REM AI
unknown barrel manufacture, unknown trigger, junky plastic stock....but it came with a scope & dies....lol...

Cartridges of the world data & info19231924
Case diagram
Just something I found online...is close but doesn't exactly match the subject chamber but is apparently modeled after a reamer
The square deal is going to be moved to the drawers, a rock bucket will be taking its place...not sure what I'm doing with the Partner press, except leaving it on its custom stand (can be used almost...
Since I have started playing with this cartridge, and info is scarce, I'll add what I have found..remember to start low & work up
data I recieved with this rifle:
42.8gr Superformance, 75gr...
I forgot the chrono....but....
41gr of IMR4350, WLR primer, 95gr BT (2.770" COAL) will group nicely @ 100 even thru a 60's vintage Leopold 3x9....20 cases fireformed, ran thru the correct die and...
Received NOS .244 Remington cases yesterday, felt kinda bad cutting the factory sealing wrap...but date code says made September 7, 1962
Will load some tonight with 95gr Nosler BT, and most likely...
There's a couple good ones up here in my neck of the woods (west Dakota)
Joel in Dickinson
Mike in Golva
I can get you contact info if this is still a project your chasing
My dad ended up talking with the owner of Shiloh...we went with 5744 and 405gr bullets...I don't remember the recipe offhand (I get to touch the gun once a year, right after I help him reload a few...
I bought my dad a Sharps long range express in 45-90 a few years back...it's never had BP thru it....we use 5744 and the 405gr bullets from Wes
Fun to shoot, hard to hold up & use the peep site at...
Also, 2nd rifle is NOT a 6mm/243 as thought...I'm leaning more toward a 7mm mag do to bolt & bore size...but need to do a chamber cast (no chambering marking, 59 build date on a win 70 action)
Harter...I may inquire on those in the near future...my 22-250 is about ready to rebate
Found dies on eBay, and unfortunately graff's/midway were both sold old on .244 Remington, but managed to...
I've added a .17 HMR since my last post, less than a box thru it and the wife says it's gonna be a kid fun, she's much fonder of her .17 Hornet
Man I need to get this heavy beast back out(keep forgetting to get dies made)...I keep taking kids coyote hunting and they don't sit still long enough to get dogs in under 400
22-243 has been a...
So let's just say I finally got my hands on a mid-50's build, anyone have dies? lol
Also have a second one that I haven't found a barrel stamp on yet (will do a chamber cast), but the bore seems to...
My wife loves her .17 Hornet....I'll look at home as to what the reload recipe is
Those are some pretty rounds....I gotta get off my 3rd point of contact and get one built
Jeez...I really need to remember to get on here more often.
I used the 6.5-06AI to help take down a nice little rag horn bull elk last fall...definitely don't use 123gr bullets, have some 143/147...
