Home Forums Reloading Big Game Rifles Good 7x57 Mauser loads

Here is a little porker (exit wound side) that I took early last evening from about 40 yards. The load is:

Bullet: 175-gr Deep Curl
Powder: 43.0 grains Ramshot Hunter
Primer: WLR
Case: Prvi PPU
COAL: 3.065" (SAAMI)
Velocity: 2300+/-

It's nothing fancy but it works.



I shot this little fellow a few weeks ago with the same load. You can see a bit of lung protruding from the exit wound. The distance was just a tad under 150 yards (laser-ranged).
