I have the same rifle! Brass is hard to find but ammo is available but $$$. I bought about four boxes of ammo and figured that's enough brass for a lifetime! Forming dies are also $$$ so to save the butt pain I figured it was easier to buy ammo. Unique is what I use to reload this and a lot of the old timers, can't go wrong!!
DroopyBassetts75,
Can you please point me in the direction of the schematic or directions to take apart the bolt? I also have a 23B and I was getting very light primer strikes so much that I had to pull the bullets from maybe ten rounds even after repeatedly trying to fire the rounds. I cleaned out the firing pin as much as possible without taking it apart then sprayed it down with carburetor cleaner following by a gun oil. I have had no more problems since then but I would like to take it apart and really clean it out.
Congratulations on your find and I hope you enjoy shooting it as much as I do mine. I load a 85g lead bullet over 5.0grains of HS-6 for about 1400fps.
Andrew
