Guys,
This rifle has been begging me to take it out this deer season. Where can I find ammo? It is stamped as 7mm on the barrel. I dont want to hot rod it, just use mild rounds for white tail. After all, it is semi retired as I am sure it worked hard for years. It was originally in Poncho Villas camp, still wears the id war paint and emblem and I 'think' from articles I read, it is one of the original mausers Poncho bought from Germany so Mexico could tool up to make their own. Found it down in Tombstone about 6 years ago.
Thanks in advance.
John
