7x57 loads for Handi?
« on: August 30, 2006, 11:59:41 AM »
I'm getting ready to make some ammo for my 7x57 (thanks Danny!) and could use some advice.  Anybody out there got experience with loading for this cartridge, especially in a Handirifle?

Thanks in advance!

Mike:
For the short period I had my Handi 7x57 in use, I loaded factory level 139 grainers. Worked great.

Thanks, Jerry.  I've got some Hornady 140 grain and just ordered some 145 grainers from Midway.
