I just go a rifle that my grandfather brought back from Germany after WW2, my uncle passed away and I got the ammo he had reloaded and the dies etc. inspected the rifle, checked good, fired four shots, the fourth shot the case ruptured just above the rim. I was very glad I had on gloves and eye protection. I will be very hesitant to fire again, but I am sure I’ll do it.

Thanks for watching. Congrats on your heirloom. That's a bummer the case blew. I'm glad you're OK. Once bitten does make people twice shy. 🙂

Finally after many years I bought a wonderful Mauser 1871-74..... It's a fantastic rifle!!! Greetings from Italy!!

you can reform .45-90 by turning the rim to 15mm dia then lube and resize. 11.15x60mm.
