This 1935 German OU combo rifle shoots Brenneke slugs above POA, even out to 100 yards. Like a laser. But I am having difficulty determining the correct 7x57R bullet weight.
The proof marks on the barrels read
St.m.G.
N 9gr.
7mm
57
1135
As I recall, line 1 means a steel jacketed bullet
Line 2 means a Nitro 9 gram bullet, which would be the 110-grain round nose [edit: my memory gets worse every day; it is the 139-grain bullet, which I have been shooting]
Lines 3 and 4 mean 7x57mm
and I thought line 5 meant the bullet weight, too, as in 11.35 grams, which is the 175-grain round nose.
I know there are German gun enthusiasts lurking here. Your help is most welcome, thank you
