It is just a bad ideal. Don't even THINK about loading it hot for the rifle. You might get mixed up and use it in a pistol. Get a
30-30 barrel.

I have a Destroyer 9mm Bergman (9x23 case) rifle. It is a small mauser type action used in Spain by the police. I bought it after reading about it in one of the gun mags (Surplus Locker). The article mentioned his Spanish guide dropping a small deer with it without a problem, but I don't think I would try it. Mine uses the 9mm Bergman (9mm Largo) and will fire and extract 9x19 as lonf as it is brass cased. Steel cases won't extract, but drop out when the rifle is shaken.


I load 45-70 ammo for three different levels:
Trapdoor Springfield Light loads (nickel cases)
1895 Marlin Cowboy Heavy Loads (brass cases)
Siamese Mauser MAGNUM loads (458 WIN MAG w/spitzers)

The nickle cases are reserved for the Springfield.
The spitzers aren't used in tubular magazines.
If I put a spitzer in the Trapdoor, it will explode.
