This review covers the Japanese Type 99 Arisaka rifle in 7.7x58mm, a WWII standard infantry weapon. Despite challenges with brass availability, it can be handloaded using formed .30-06 brass. The rifle features unique anti-aircraft sights and, while lightweight and slim, exhibits significant recoil. Accuracy at 100 yards is respectable, even with iron sights.

This FAQ video by Hickok45 focuses on safe powder choices for handloaders, emphasizing the preference for bulky powders. Bulky powders offer a visual safety margin by making double charges or overcharges immediately apparent, as excess powder will spill from the case. Specific examples like Accurate Arms #7 for 9mm and comparing Alliant Unique to 2400 for .44 caliber loads illustrate this principle.
