One of the things I enjoy about shooting hundred plus year old rifles is the challenges they produce when reloading. The latest Concurrenz proofed in 1907 would not chamber brass run thru a Pacific 8.15x46 die, this is what was necessary to form shootable brass. Full length resize in a 32-40 die, full length resize in a 32 Winchester Spcl die to create the neck, run all the brass over an 8x57 expander ball. The last step was to accept a stop ring bullet with a .319 base band, and finally make sure the brass would chamber & extract. The only thing I have found on the Concurrenz that I don’t like is the weak extraction of stubborn brass. Notice the distinct neck on the fire formed brass in the photo.
