5.7 x 28 MM
« on: October 15, 2009, 04:34:37 AM »
Hey everyone:

Anyone on here shooting this one ?  If you are, please share info/load data, etc. I have a barrel ordered from MGM, and awaiting my loading stuff. I think this will be a keeper for sure.

Best,

Good little round, mine is very accurate just need a scope with more X's to see the smaller targets at longer distances ;D

Not sure if it is better than my K-Hornet or equal to, but a lot of fun anyway

Hey there:

Anyone who can/will send me some reloading data on this lil cartridge, I's sure appreciate it. My barrel is ordered from MGM, and I already have the dies for it here. Thought maybe could have a few loaded up and ready to go when barrel gets here. I'm excited about this round. One of my buddies on Speciality Pistols said he uses 10 &/or 10.5 grains Lil Gun and it beats his 22 Hornet by 200 FPS with 2 grains less powder.

Well, I'm excited, anyway.

Thanks to all of you,
