Any info on 8mm Pieper reloading ?

[olivierlamothe]

Just bought a nice M1893 Pieper revolver in 8mm pieper.

Any info about the way I could reload for that old girl ? I can't find info anywhere...

I heard you could use 32-20 like for 8mm lebel.

Let me know, any info would be useful,

Thanks,

Olivier

Sounds like an interesting oddity. Would love to see pictures.

Can't offer any specific suggestions but would recommend that you take measurements from the chambers and bore and refer to something like the dimension charts in Cartridges of the World to see what is closest. 32-20 might be a good place to start but I'd do some checking first.
