Not sure what you mean by "125". If you're referring to the 7.7x58 Arisaka rifles (such as the Type 99), then no. The 7.92x57 Mauser casings can be fire formed to the correct dimensions for reloads, but cannot be used as is. The projectile used in the 7.7 Arisaka cartridge is actually the same as used in the British .303 (7.7x56R) cartridge.

After the war, there were some Type 99 rechambered for the 7.92x57 Mauser cartridge for the Kuomitang (Nationalist Chinese), but these are extremely rare to encounter on the market. Some rifles were also rechambered for the US .30-06 (7.62x63) for the South Koreans. These are also very uncommon.

Can a 125 grain bullet be shot in a smith and Wesson model 19?

125 grains has been a common and popular .357 bullet since at least the 1970's. Police departments using the magnum often specified this weight, on the grounds that the expanded bullet would less frequently perforate a body and cause injury down-range (than a heavier bullet would.)


Does grain equal powder or bullet?

Grain is a unit of weight, like pounds ounces or grams. There are 7000 grains to a US pound. Both bullets and powder charges are measured in grains. However, when referring to a particular version of a cartridge, grain will USUALLY refer to the weight of the bullet- as in a 125 gr. .357- they are speaking of a .357 Magnum cartridge loaded with a 125 grain bullet.

shoot them and see results. I load 9mm with 115 and 124 grains, so 125 grain 'might' be little heavy for 380, but that does not mean they won't preform well. Try & see ??

How far can a 17hmr shoot?

The maximum range is somewhere around 1.5 to 2 miles, however, it's effective range is much less. These are extremely accurate cartridges to about 125-150 yards. Beyond that, the round is dropping velocity quickly due to the very light weight bullet, and at 200 yards would be 5 inches below the line of sight for a 100 yd zero, and drop even more quickly beyond 200.
