John,

sorry about the missprint, that should have been 93 gr NOT 96 gr. They were a special run of bullets for the 30 Luger, Hornady product #1440, Hornady also made a special run of 30 Mauser 86 gr SP, Hornady product #1522. Apparantly both Midway & Graff have sold out. Old Western Scrounger may still have some, ows-ammo.com but I can't access their website at present.

Huntingtons still has some of the 86 gr mauser bullets "for sale until the supply is exhausted" here: http://www.huntingtons.com/bullets_hornadyspecial.html

I would think that the 85gr or 90gr XTP or Gold Dot would work fine in the 30 Mauser. I use them in the 30 Luger.
