8X22mm Mambu loads

[spudgun]

A friend of mine has a Type 14 Mambu and was wondering if I could make some ammo for him.

Went back to the oldest reloading book I have from the 70's and can't find anything.

I do not have brass and was wondering if I could make some from common brass that is available.

Anyone got any info or help???

I think I can get dies.

Looks expensive. Depending on how much he will shoot, maybe just buy some ammo.

Thank you.

Yes it does look expensive.

I will give him the bad news........

I did find some loaded ammo for about $1.50 a shot.

I haven’t tried it yet, but it is possible to make Nambu cases from .357 Sig cases. I think it was kind of involved though.

That must brand new stock on the dies. I was looking to load for a friend that has several Nambu's and a year or two years ago they hadn't made any in a while and they were considerably more expensive than that. The cheapest I found back then was over $400.
