Looking at reloading 7.62x54 hollow points
for hunting purposes. Specifically for wild bore and deer hunting. Full metal jackets are not allowed for hunting in Missouri. I know the bore of the old M-44 slugs to .311. Has anybody figured out a load and bullet combination. Most of military surplus FMJ ammo is 148 grain. I plan on just pulling the FMJs and emptying the powder and recharging it with a known powder load and resetting the bullet thus utilizing the military surplus cartridge and primer. Any suggestions?
