I'm wondering if any of you fellas load for this rifle.
I'm reading some internet forums about this rifle but it seems like they start talking about the rechambering of 95's and it runs off the rails there. What I understand is that my rifle has a shortened, rechambered 03a3 4 groove barrel on it chambered in 7.62 NATO.
I want to load some 168 grn Sierra Match Kings for it, and I do have the Sierra manual, but their loads that proved their best may be too much pressure.....
If you load for this particular rifle and have decent accuracy in it let me know what bullet powder combinations I might try.
