Look who is back!!!

Bergerboy has only proven his ignorance and now you are here to back that up.
Gentleman, please. Do some actual reading. DO a search for 38-55 load data.
SAAMI ensures that comercially loaded amunition is safe to fire FROM ALL RIFLES!!!! Look to see what other rifles were chambered in 38-55...
Come on you guys...this has gone well beyond silly.
