[edit] Ballistic performances

The "ballistic performances" coming from Hodgdon's site are merely recommendations for handloaders. Thoose data are far below that of the original military load, or thoose of the more widely known commercial ammo, manufactured by Hornady and Norma. If there aren't reasons for them to be mantained, I will replace them with the original military spec. coming from the "Manuale Militare per le Scuole Allievi Ufficiali", and G. Simone, R. Belogi, A. Grimaldi "Il 91" (1970): bullet weight/type 162gr - 10,5g; velocity 2297ft/s - 700 m/s; energy 1897ft·lbf - 2572J, with a 780mm barrel. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.61.158.167 (talk) 19:07, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
