Was able to snag a carbine to go with my long rifle. The carbine is an MLE1892 built in 1894. This thing out flamethrows a M44 if you could believe that.8mm lebel is a bad ass round.

I reload for all of my military surplus and everything else for that matter. I am into some oddball calibers so it allows me to shoot them instead of just stare at them. You should think about reloading if you are in love with mislurp. Its the only way to go especially for the styer rifles you can really tone them back recoil wise.

Wow, you found some. Thank you very much. I've thought about reloading, but tend to be so busy, I don't see where I'd find the time. I have heard others say the same tho, and see the benefits especially with milsurps. Don't you struggle to find the brass, or is it easier to find?
