I have an 8 3/8 mod. 53 that I shoot occasionally.As others stated the charge holes and cartridges must be thoroughly degreased or upon firing the case will setback on the recoil shield and tie up the gun.Uprimed brass is available and Hornady sells .222 diameter bullets that are the correct size for the Jet.As stated before this gun is very loud.I would advise wearing both ear plugs and muffs when firing.Hope this helps.
