My 20-inch barrel 7mm-08 gets pretty good velocity
2,850 fps for factory 120-gr loads (3,000 fps from 24 inch)
2,700 fps for factory 139-gr loads (2,800 fps from 24 inch)
Do any of you shoot a 7x57 in a 20-inch carbine (Brno 22, Steyr, Interarm Mark X), and what kind of performance do you get?
Lee,
My main 7x57 is a FN Venezuelan with a 18" barrel. It loves (legitimate .5 groups loves) 120 gr TSX's and 49 gr R15 at about 2950. At an OAL of 3.13 I get the Kismet of a full case of powder and .05 land jump in my rifle.
