I'm currently building an Ammo Display to show the various ammo for the weapons I own. Been a slow process to say the least.
Commercial ammo is easy to find, some milsurp ammo or old ammo can be a nightmare.
I've found 2 of the final 4 hard to find cartridges. Those two being the Swiss 41 aka 10.4×38 (Swiss Vetterli round), and the 577 Snider-Enfield cartridge. I'm still looking for the following two cartridges.
8x57J Early style round nose 8mm cartridge, this was used in the GEW 88 rifles originally.
And
8x50R this is what was originally used in the Steyr Mannlicher before it was changed to the 8x56R
So if anyone has one of the two rounds I'm looking for please reach out to me.
