Christmas Siamese Mauser | Handloaded Type 66 8x52R in the First Contract RS 121

Testing newly formed 8x52R Siamese Mauser ammunition. The rifle is a first contract RS121 that has been updated with second contract and later features, including modification to the Type 66 Spitzer ammunition. I formed the cases for the cartridges from 45-70 Government brass using a combination of modified sizing dies, and I turned the rims/extractor grooves with a lathe.
