6.8SPC, .41Mag & .357Max.
Got any nice 357 Max loads?
LOL! That's what happened to me! A friend gave me dies, brass and ammo. I had to go online and buy a barrel for my Contender after that!!!I lucked into a set of 30 Herrett dies a couple years ago but haven't gotten a barrel for it yet.
A couple of my friends have those rifles. I've shot them several times. Even took one deer hunting for a couple of days last year. Put a .250" front sight on them and had them shooting dead on at 50 yds. Very fun gun to shoot..41 Swiss (10.4×38mmR) black powder ctg, formed from 8mm Lebel brass, through a M78/81 rimfire Vetterli that's been converted to centerfire.
Do I win?
I've got the Italian Vetterli in 10.4 center fire..41 Swiss (10.4×38mmR) black powder ctg, formed from 8mm Lebel brass, through a M78/81 rimfire Vetterli that's been converted to centerfire.

I've got a custom bolt rifle in 257 Roberts on the way. It's built on a commercial 98 Mauser action. I'll post pics when it arrives.The round nose 117 grain bullet does a good job on deer.
Please do!!!I've got a custom bolt rifle in 257 Roberts on the way. It's built on a commercial 98 Mauser action. I'll post pics when it arrives.
Great, look forward to the pictures.I've got a custom bolt rifle in 257 Roberts on the way. It's built on a commercial 98 Mauser action. I'll post pics when it arrives.
19.2gr I4227 under a 200gr GCLWFN works a treat in my 10.5", ~1500fps & just starting to show pressure signs.
I want to play with some 180gr jacketed over A1680 & see what happens.
For .41Mag, I'm really liking 240gr Keiths over 16ish gr 2400. Shoots great, 1200-1300fps (5.5" vs. 7.5") & still plenty of headroom. Wanting to try some cast 250gr HP & some 265gr LWFN if I can find a plain base variant.
My go to most favorite rifle ever is a 700 in .243 ackley/improved.
