My nephew has decided he wants to try out his Dad's old sporterized 8mm Mauser this fall for deer hunting. I don't load for this round or any 8mm round for that matter. Going to need dies and bullets, and possibly brass. My BIL thinks he has a fair amount of brass, but hasn't looked to be sure yet. I posted about this over in the hunting rifles forum, and the advice I got was to start with bullets in the 150gr range, so this is the weight of bullets I'd be most interested in.
Let me know what you've got available.
Those who must raise their voice to get their point across are generally not intelligent enough to do so in any other way.

I have some .323 Sierra bullets and I think I may have a couple boxes or so of 150gr. If interested I will check this evening and see what I have. They are the older style green cardboard box Sierra spitzers. Still load for my 8mm but don't shoot it a lot so can probably help you out.

I'd definitely be interested. Let me know what you find.
