Frequently Asked Questions
What rifle is this ammunition for?
This 8×50R Mannlicher load is developed specifically for the original Steyr M95 chambered in 8×50R. It is a robust, historically appropriate factory load at roughly 1,950 fps with a 205-grain projectile.
Can I use this in an 8×56R M95/34?
No. This ammunition is for the original 8×50R chambering only. Many M95 rifles were later converted to the more powerful 8×56R (the M95/34, marked 'S' or 'H'), and firing the wrong cartridge is dangerous. Always confirm your rifle's chambering by its markings before use.
What bullet does this load use?
It uses a .329" diameter, 205-grain FMJSP (full metal jacket soft point) projectile, sized correctly for the 8×50R bore, at approximately 1,950 fps.
How is this ammunition made?
Because 8×50R is obsolete and hard to source, these cases are formed from 7.62x54R brass, carefully sized and trimmed to 50.1–50.3 mm, then loaded to an appropriate M95 specification. This makes reliable 8×50R available again for the rifle.
Is 8×50R ammunition otherwise available?
8×50R Mannlicher is an obsolete military cartridge no longer in mass production, which is why factory loads like this one are valuable to M95 owners. It can also be handloaded, but ready-made ammunition is much harder to find than for common calibers.
