same problem as the rest of yous guys. 7.62x25, 7.62x54R(1891) 300Savage(mine is model99-1953 vintage), 7.5x55(1889 for the origen Schmidt-Rubin design) {K-31}, 6.5x55 (M-96), 7.5x57(modelo1912 {yup I gots one in the original chambering} & M-95), 7.7X58 Arisaka, 6.5x52 (Mannlicher-Carcano), and of course Old Smelley (303 brit #4 mk1) not to mention 7.92x57js. BTW the -06 redesign from the -03 was forced after Germany introduced the 7.92x57js (154 gr .323 bullet at a posted 2800fps)in 1905. please don't confuse the 7.92x57j (.318 bullet at 2200(?)fps1888 commission rifle) with the 7.92x57js (1898 mauser). putin' the "js" round in a "j" can be an exciting situation (not real pleasant tho')
