whats everyone's favorite loads. and where you get your brass?
Must not be anybody on the forum yet that loads for that. I’ve got one. Got brass bullets and dies, but haven’t loaded any yet. I got my brass by buying cheaper factory ammo ( wolf gold, prvi, and such) and saving my brass. I would check graf&sons for brass, if I remember, they carry a lot of the military stuff.

We do occasional package deals with brass and bullets, but as stated above, brass is tough to get, so factory ammo is the way to go for most people to get brass
I load for it just don't shoot a ton with it. When brass was scarce I bought some new PPU from Grafs... then when Wes runs a deal I usually buy some up. Right now I have more than I need for reloading.
If you are have none maybe we can work a deal where you order something from Wes for me and I ship some to you... My #1 suggestion is to Slug your barrel so you know what bullets to buy. Many people buy .308 bullets but mine slugged in larger so I buy the 303 (.311) bullets.
I use my reloads at the ranges that do not allow bimetal or FMJ and use my reloads for the ones that require Hollow-point or soft points.

I reload 762x54R all the time, but only lead bullets. The best mould for mine is the Lee C312-185-1R. With 26.5 gr of H4198 I get 3/4" groups at 100 yards. With 25.4 gr of I4227 I get 1/2" groups at 100 yards. I bought some PPU brass years ago and no telling how many reloads I have on them.

Off topic, but do you guys know if that stock fits the m38 or m44 Mosin carbines? Or is it just for the 91/30?

It fits all 3. https://www.archangelmanufacturing.c...130mosinnagant
Thanks. Is that scope mount offset, so you don’t have to change the bolt handle, or do you have to get the bolt handle replaced?
