7.92x57 for "S" stamped GEW 88

[tree mugger]

Any recipes for 7.92x57 using jacketed bullets for an 'S' stamped GEW 88?

Would prefer to use IMR 4064 (using it for all other reloads).

Also please include the bullet diameter/weight

No one ??

40 grains 4064 with a 165 or 170 grain 321" bullet (sold for 32 Winchester Special).

By coincidence I just loaded up some 8X57 rounds for my M88 and I also use the .321" 170gr. bullets intended for the 32 Win Special. Not 4064 but a Lyman start load of the easy to find Win 748 powder at 40.5 gr. produces a nice lower pressure round that shoots decently in my rifle. Just thought I'd mention it as an alternative perhaps.
