Serbian Major Koka Milovanovich contributed to design modifications meant to make it more durable and reliable than the original M71 design, and as such, the model is often referred to as the Mauser-Koka or Mauser-Milovanovich. The carbine features a turned-down bolt.Ī variant was adopted by Serbia in 1880 and designated the Model 78/80, chambered for the slightly smaller 10.15圆3mmR cartridge. During World War I, the brass trigger guards on these rifles were frequently replaced by steel parts in order to recycle the copper, which was in short supply during the war. The Jäger also features a brass finger rest on the underside of the wrist. The infantry and Jäger models can be differentiated by the number of barrel bands (three on the infantry rifle, two on the Jäger) and by their sling arrangement the infantry rifle has a sling between the trigger guard and second barrel band, the Jäger's sling extends from the lower barrel band to a swivel on the buttstock. It came in three variations: the infantry rifle with an 855mm barrel, the Jäger model with 750mm barrel, and a carbine with a 500mm barrel. It fired an 11mm bullet weighing 386 grains at a muzzle velocity of 1440 feet-per-second, from a rimmed brass case 60mm long. It replaced a mix of other infantry arms, including the Dreyse and the Werndl rifles. The single-shot bolt-action Model 1871 was Mauser's first commercial success, being adopted by the Prussian Army in March of 1872, and by 1877 the armies of all the other component states of the German Empire had followed suit. 30 Westley Richards Mauser Magazine Rifle.Other posts on this forum come from guys who have enjoyed excellent results with these powders, so you need to see which works best for you in your rifles.
I have not been impressed with IMR 3031 or IMR 4831 in terms of accuracy in any of my rifles. 243 all suggest that IMR 4064 is a very satisfactory powder in terms of accuracy. My experience with reloading 8x57 is limited, but extensive tests with. I have some Hornady 150s loaded over various weigts of IMR 4064 but have not yet had a chance to try them. I will be trying other powders with both bullets, but have found that 46.5 grains of IMR 4064 over the Remington 185gr yielded average 3 shot 100 yard groups of 0.75" (biggest 1.38", smallest 0.38".) I found that 48 grains of IMR 3031 over the 150 grain Hornadys yielded 5 shot 100 yard groups averaging 1.19".
I've started working up a load for it, and have tried the Hornady 150 grain Spire Point with IMR 3031 powder, and the Remington 185 grain PSP bullet with IMR 4064 powder. I got a new Remington Classic in November in 8x57mm Mauser.
