7x64 br Ruger
« on: December 26, 2009, 09:14:37 AM »
I picked up a Ruger mkII in 7x64 Breneke this summer and i have yet to see or hear of another. does anyone have one/ if so, what are you shooting out of it. I have two boxes of Norma 140 gr soft points that i found for it but that is all that i have found.

Hmmm I know the Privi Partisen is imported into the US to try asking about it as they load 7x64 as do most European makers of course. Otherwise I am afraid it's going to be handloading  ;) not a problem I suspect.

Modern Reloading 2nd edition by Richard Lee has lots of loading data 7x64 Brenneke also Norma makes brass try Midway,Huntington.  They say you can form cases from 30-06 but I do it from 280 then trim and you be pretty close to the 280 in performance.  Yep, Ruger did make 7x64 here a copy of Ruger card go to calibers and you see your caliber.

Thanks for the responses fellows. I have not ordered dies yet but I plan to in the future. I am hoping to find a 140 gr accubond load that shoots well. That should be great for whitetail.
