Cpt. Curl:

You got me thinking, so I just ordered 1,000 Fiocchi (SP) 7.65 Luger cases from Graffs for just a little over $13.00 per hundred with my FFL (C&R) discount.

I'll have to wait about 8 weeks before I can do any handloading, however.

Just an unrelated question, but do you lube your paper patches after installing them? I paper patch for an 11.15X60R Mauser rifle, and have found this helpful to accuracy.

Something else about both the 9mm and 7.65mm Parabellum cartridges, they are both very sensitive to even 1/10 grain variations in powder charge and OAL variations as well. Find the right load, and you will be shooting three shot "one holers" all afternoon!
