Anyone reload 42 Russian??

[Bittermansbro]

I doubt there have been many Russian Berdan II rifles brought in country over the last 80 years, but thought I would ask if anyone loads for 42 Russian? 10.67x58R I think?

"...42 Russian..." 10.66X57R. Expensive stuff that. Buffalo Arms, Stateside, wants $2.65US each, for brass. $42US per 20, $103 per 50 and $201 per 100. Uses an RCBS #22 shell holder. Dies are $156.69US. No exporting brass without the U.S. permit though. It uses a paper patched bullet.
Here's a bit of info if nothing else. http://www.russianwarrior.com/STMMain.htm?1870AmmoBerdan.htm&1

Since when was this? I just got brass from them a couple months ago.

As for cost of brass, I have experienced the same thing with 45-75...sigh.

I can't have a rifle I can't shoot....
