Re: Meanest C&R cartridge?

The 7.62x54 out of an M44 is the meanest cartridge I've ever fired, however, when I had my Hakim out to the range, it was overshadowed by a Barrett M82, and an StG44 fired on full auto, the muzzle...

If you stand with your back to someone shooting an M44, it's kinda' like getting a back massage. Eric

The 8mm mauser, Feel the power, it will go through a .5 inch plate of steel with easy, where the 7.62x54R will struggle going though it.

It's a shame you didn't put the 8x56R up there. Shoot that thing in a Steyr M95. The muzzle blast stripped the paint off of the shooting bench.

my Hungarian M95 shooting 1939-dated 8x56R German ammo is brutal...3 clips full will leave me sore for 3 days, although my Mosin M44 is a loud SOB. Just bought a Carcano converted to 7.92x57...6.5 lb...

Re: Meanest C&R cartridge?

I'll have to say 7.92. Seems there is always some show off goober with his mini-14 decked out with every bolt on you can buy at the range and i've found a good way to put him in his place is to rapid...

I voted for the 8MM because shooting it in a Hakim really gets the attention of those around you. It's so loud and the Hakim action so long that people sometimes want to know if it is a "50"

Re: Meanest C&R cartridge?

I have an 8mm, 7.62x54, and a .303. A while back I brought all three to the range, shooting them all side by side I found the 7.62x54 and the 8mm is almost equal as far as noise and recoil, I have...

Re: Meanest C&R cartridge?

Too bad we can't have antique cartridges. .577/450 Martini-Henry gets the most attention of anything at the range. Twice I've lietrally had the entire firing line, about 10 or 15 people, stop and look...

Definitely 7.62x54 in any of the carbines. fearsome muzzle flash and a report that everyone notices Todd When you have to shoot,shoot, Don't talk

Re: Meanest C&R cartridge?

Given a choice, I would say that the worst overall would be the 7.62x54R out of one of the carbine length rifles. With the steel butplates, they get punishing after a few hundred rounds. I have...
