Ok, right from the start I'm not trolling or trying to stir the pot. Why is the 7X57 load data so mild. I know there are a ton of old guns out there chambered for this round as it is older than the 30-30. But, why not have a separate section for modern rifles like they have for the 45-70. It's hard for me to believe that the 7mm-08 should be out doing a 7X57 which has more usable case capacity. Is this a case design issue or just they usual fear of loading and old number to modern specs. Just FYI I own a 7mm-08 and love it. However, I hate it when good old cartridges are left to go into obscurity because they aren't loaded to their potential.


Keep your powder dry and stay frosty my friends.
