Saturday afternoon, a fellow came into the shop looking for 8mm Labell (sp?) ammo. He swears up and down that that's what's stamped on his rifle, which is over 100 years old (he says).
None of us there had heard of it. I can't find it in any of my reloading books.
Harley, Jim, do you have a clue about this rifle/cartridge? He's bringing the gun in on Tuesday; I'll get some more details then, like proof marks and chamber dimensions.
