@Stubbs Shall I fill you in?
Is this retard trying to make a cetme in 8mm kurz into a cetme in 8mm
No
Because that's fucking retarded
lmao no
But probably not as bad as what he actually wants
A 7.62 NATO to 7.92 Masuer
He wants to rechamber one in 7.62x51 to 8mm Mauser
Because if it isn't that it's probably worse
The only real problem is the cartridge length
And the Mauser shoulder being 1mm shorter
The receiver can't accommodate that
The barrel can't accommodate that
The action can't accommodate that
You'd have to replace the whole gun
And it's a stupid idea
But it can tho
It's not a fundamentally dumb idea but adapting existing platforms for it would be difficult.
You can't just extendo the receiver and expect it to go well
a 7.62 NATO chamber and action is already rated for the pressure
So enlighten us.
So the problem is milling the chamber to properly fit 7.92x57
Rofl let him speak a minute
Then you can fit a 7.92 barrel
It's a text chat you dumb fuck
The action of a 7.62 NATO to saami spec is rated for a similar pressure but for probably half the time
Not like you screaming over people in VC
Oh and a 7.62 and 7.92 barrel are in fact different
You're talking before he has a chance to respond you barbarian
7.92 barrel is 0.3mm wider, yeah.
Although you should use either 5R or polygonal
And if you can make it or have it made, it's not a stretch for it to have the appropriate mounting points for whatever receiver you want
It's not just the bore
An 8mm round has nearly twice the interference
Would lubing my gun's barrel make the bullets go faster out the end because less resistance?
An 8mm projectile to spec is actually above 8mm.
8.2mm
precisely
Which is why this hinges on getting a new barrel made for 7.92
The interference you'd get in a .308 bore would be .0160
