Hot 8x57 js Handloads??
« on: January 22, 2005, 12:30:01 PM »
Can anyone tell me where i can find some hotter handloads for the 8x57 js mauser with .323 dia bullets. All i can seem to find in the reloading manuals are reduced loads for use in old  beat up rifles. I have heard that in Europe this caliber is almost as powerful as the 30-06 but i can not find any of these hotter handloads. Any data or help would be much appreciated.

Hornady, and Speer have loadings that are up there. They have a 150g bullet at 2900 fps or so. I have the load notes from Hornady and a Speer manual, so if you want info for a certain bullet just ask.
