7X57 Mauser Loads

I have loaded various 175 gr bullets in several 7X57s over the years. It is no trick at all to get past 2600 fps with excellent accuracy and long case life.

This!! I had a Ruger 77 [200 year edition] that had a generous throat and chamber.
Was able to reach 2670 with the 175 safely in that rifle. [Norma MRP]
The 160 made 2800, the 140 flirted with 3000.
All were accurate and case life was great.

My present Remington 700 Classic will not quite go there without pressure signs, but I shoot the 140 exclusively in it with Reloder 17.
Shoots ragged holes at 2915 fps avg for 5 shots. Good enough!!

Dave.
