Here is a pic of it.I think he set it up in a press and the hole through the cylinder steps down.I've never thought to try it as Hawk bullets has proper bullets for the rifle should I decide to use it.

Not judging, but for me I couldn’t own a firearm and not shoot it. For me, I even have to hunt with it. Even if it’s only mice. I guess that means, I am a hunter.

One also have to see some things from the perspective of a collector. I am also primarily a hunter, but I also have fun, in addition to what I really need for hunting, to own a few older classic hunting rifles.

As far as a rifle caliber 11,2x72 Schüler is concerned, normally no hunter who thinks practically would buy nowadays an old rifle of this caliber as his first big game rifle. Same with me, I had what I needed for hunting big game in my gun-safe, but I had read a lot about the cartridge 11,2x72 Schüler and when a cheap offer for an original rifle from Schüler of this caliber came up, I bought it. Sure, as a hunter I also wanted to shoot something with it and did so in the following months on a buffalo hunt in Africa. Nevertheless, there are also a few old double rifles in my gun-safe, rifles that I don't needed but bought and for that I have none yet found a practical use for big game hunting nowadays.

Beautiful rifle in the German classic biggame caliber. Recoil is on par with .416Rigby. Build as "eine schlank pirschbüchsen stutzen" my guess is as good as anybody that recoil will create some anxieties(angst)...:LOL

The case dimensions are very close and you can resize the 404 in the 11.2x72 dies and a short trim. That's the easy part.

Now you have to chuck the 404 case in a lathe and turn the case rim down to the rebated rim size of the 11.2, then have to cut a new extractor groove to match the correct one in the 11.2. So until they get a run of the correct brass into suppliers you at least should be able to make some. Since the Ultra mag cases also use a 404 as the parent case in theory you should also be able to make brass from them.

Bullets you can find Hawk, woodleighs or cast bullets. There might be a few others out there. can also swage 45cal down.

Looks like Bertram Brass has it.
