    I use 2206H in my 7x57 with 140's, slightly more than you loads, but not much. And for about the same velocity. Theres something pretty satisfying hitting an animal with a 7x57, they all seem to go...

    38 and 39 gr give you the most consistent speeds (granted less shots so potentially advantaged) if not playing with other powders i would be tempted to adjust seating depths at those charge weights...

    Yeah W760 morphed into H414, or maybe the other way around, around the time Hodgdon took over the marketing of Winchester powders. Old old reloading data should show a difference between the 2...

    Jhon, Some general comments on loading for the 7mm Mauser from my experience with ex mil 98 spotters and a rimmed single shot. I support Mathais’ comments on WW760, it seems to be excellent in...

    Jhon liked post by Mathias On thread : 7x57mm 1st effort - comments?
    Only comment I can add, I always used W760 powder & a magnum primer for the 7x57 with excellent results. 760 is a very dense ball powder, so the mag primer was a good option for ignition. From memory...

    Just take the whole decapping assembly out and resize as normal. Or if you have case mouths that are out if round, just remove the decapping pin. I use a universal decapping die and never use the...

    Cork floor tiles or even carpet tiles, two wads deep make for a good overpowder wad. Cornflake box or really any "thin-ish" cardboard shiny side out will do for you overshot wad. Make a 11...
