I am surprised that any reputable outfit would sell these dangerous rifles just waiting to blow up.
You know, now that I think about it I have never heard of a small ring 98 in 308 actually blowing up. Can anyone offer a case history of such an incident?
On a related topic, I purchased 3,000 rounds of military surplus 7x57 about 20 years ago. Dated 1970 it uses a 139 grain bullet at a clocked 2925 FPS. This ammo just feels very warm when shooting it. However I have never had any trouble in my small ring BRNO 98s.
BTW- this ammo is amazingly consistent with a variation of less than 10 FPS and seems to be very accurate.
