Gun and Game Forums - View Single Post - Best ammo to shoot out of an 8mm Turk Mauser?

Iron_Colonel · 03-12-2008, 08:32 PM

Well now I have bought the gun (as can be seen a few posts below this one) I now need to find ammo for it. Ammo now a days isn't as cheap as it used to be. I was thinking the best way to go would be with milsurp ammo. It has already been suggested to me to use the Turkish ammo in it since it is a Turkish Mauser.

So I guess my question is what is the best suggested stuff? Will it all mostly give the same performance? Is there any 8mm ammo that I shouldn't shoot out of it thats made for Mausers? Any info will help. Thanks for all the info on the other thread, it is much appreciated.
