Description
Details
This 8mm Mauser (also known as the 7.92x57mm Mauser) cartridge is surplus from the Yugoslav National Army. The Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia will not be making any more of this ammunition any time soon, largely due to the fact that it no longer exists. If you’re looking for an effective yet nonetheless cost-effective ammunition for your classic Gewehr 98, vz. 24, or Yugo M24/47, then you’ll enjoy this round’s history as well as its performance.
This cartridge sports a 198 grain projectile. The bullet’s hard full metal jacket will assure that it feeds reliably in an old bolt action, and also enables it to pass through many types of targets. This round features a uniform brass casing, although you’ll likely wish to pass on reloading it thanks to its Berdan primer. That primer is corrosive — rather than stockpile this ammo, have fun with it during an upcoming range session instead.
