BEJ Posted November 4, 2009 Report Share Posted November 4, 2009 What is the correct diameter bullet to use in this case and which diameters will work ?? Firearm is a 91/30. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roscoedoh Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 Some Finnish Mosin Nagants used a .308" diameter bore. However, the general rule with Mosins is the bore will be .311" or larger. Load for mine using the same bullets I use in my Lee-Enfields. I recommend .311" bullets. Sierra Matchkings are most accurate in my 91/30. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank46 Posted December 22, 2009 Report Share Posted December 22, 2009 Thank you for the information. Hornady also makes a .312 diameter bullet also, actually two bullets. One is a 150grain spire point and the other is a 185 grain round nosed bullet. Hope this helps. Frank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FC Posted December 24, 2009 Report Share Posted December 24, 2009 My sizes varied a lot, just like stated above. Measure to be sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
