First let me say that I am a novice hand loader, I follow the books like the bible and stay with intermediate loads. I do not have a chronograph. I have been given some 162 gr ball bullets pulled from 6.5 Carcano military cartridges.
My question...can I load these in my 6.5 Arisaka (modern single shot throated for 160�s) or do they need to be swaged down? Can they be swaged down?
Thanks for any help I can get......TED

I wouldn't waste my time and other components loading pulled military bullets. MidwayUSA had 160 grain Hornady RNs on sale recently. Once you find a load that your rifle shoot good groups with, being able to repeat those loads with common components is generally good economy.
