Default Re: 7.63 Mauser vs 7.62 Tokarov

Hi unspellable,


The 7.63x25 Mauser and the 7.62x25 TT-33 cartridges are essentially identical, as are the chamber headspace of C96 Mausers and TT-33 Tokarev pistols. If a fellow is getting case neck separations firing 7.63 Mauser in a TT-33, the TT-33 isnâ??t chambered for 7.62x25 Tokarev, or the pistol has a chamber problem, or there is a problem with the cartridge cases of the 7.63 Mauser ammunition (embrittlement due to age or chemical contamination are prime suspects).


Hope this helps!


Best regards,


Kyrie
