7.35 Carcano

Home ]

 

Reloading for this round isn't difficult, but it can be pricy. Unless you are very lucky (like me), you'll have to buy cases resized from something else, and pay through the nose for commercial jacketed bullets or find someone who can cast the right bullets for you.

Below is a picture of my luck. I have a box of correctly headstamped 7.35 cases from Midway, and the Hornady 7.35mm .300 diameter bullets, and the inexpensive Lee die set. Using these components and Winchester primers I was able to produce some stunningly accurate loads for my Carcano moshetto!
