I am the guy that fal308 is feferring to as the owner of a few (3) of these Argentine Mausers. They are indeed good rifles as long as reloads are kept in the proper pressure range. You can get brass and ammo for 7.65 Mauser from Norma, but i find it a whole lot cheaper to make the cases from 30-06 cases. Just anneal them, full length resize, and trim to length. .311 diameter bullets are available in 150 and 180 grain weights. Load data is kind of scarce, but for those two weights it can be found. If you want to run any specific questions by me, be my guest and i'll try to help.
By the way, i too have had good luck in obtaining parts for them from the Gun Parts Corp.
