It was a 70 year old ex US military case from a batch of ammo I pulled.

It was in a stainless Zastava - ie commercial Mauser pattern rifle.

It was very unpleasant. A full face of gas and powder. No brass thankfully. Wasn't wearing glasses, dodged a bullet there.

The action was full of grit and shidt as well as you'd expect, but I still shot two feral billy goats later that morning.

So the Mauser 98 action too is not infallible. I wonder what the result would have been in another action?


bobnob,

That doesn't sound like fun.

Does the Zastava have a c-collar? I thought the Yugos were similar to a Mouser, but not a true 98.
