The 8mmx56R WAS NOT used by Austria-Hungary. It was not developed and adopted until 1930 (Austria) and 1931 (Hungary) many years after the dissolution of Austria-Hungary.


Swage up, draw down

[edit]

You don't Swage down, you draw down. You can't swage a bullet down, that's not what that word means. (This applies to bullet terminology/jargon, not machining in general.) You can draw the bullet through a sizing die, but it's going to induce core separation in soft point hunting bullets because the jacket has more spring to it than the lead core.
