I own two Mauser K98s (German manufacture) and I am wanting to reload for them. I am looking for confirmation on my assumptions please. My plan is to buy a reloading die (8mmx57) along with the tool I can squeeze 30-06 shells into and trim to length. I assume that the 7x57 die is wrong despite the Mauser being 7.92 and therefore I need an 8x57 die for the bullets in .323 diameter.
Is there any advice I should know before I attempt to saw down perfectly good brass for an odd round? I am excited as I have not been able to shoot my Mausers for a while due to the lack of ammo.
What does one use a 7x57 die and 7mm ammo for when it comes to Mausers?
Thanks from a newbie to reloading.
