Thread: 7x57 load

I tried 2206H because my barrel is 18" and needs a faster powder to get some speed. 42gn's of 2206H gives mr 2714fps, and groups of 1.1-1.2moa. 43gns gives me about 50fps faster, but opens up the groups a little, so I've settled on 42. Thats with the 140gn SGK

Year mines a 24" 1/9 twist but I'm looking in the heavy bullet category. Have had a look at the 7/08 load data as it's very close.

Micky Duck that book sounds interesting I'll have a look for it. Might be a bit of a struggle me being in the uk though
