Posted By: Seafire 5.7 x 28??? - 05/17/07
Today at the range, I picked up a case laying in the grass... I wasn't familar with it, and it looked too small to be a necked down 30 Carbine Case... and at first I thought it was a fat 17 HMR case, until I noticed the reloadable primer on the bottom of it..

I had to wait until I got home and got out a magnifying glass to read the inscription on the bottom, but it did say 5.7 x 28....

I have heard of it, but this is my first contact with it...

Sure looks like a very efficient little varmint case....
Any help would be appreciated...

Cheers and thanks..

It has less energy than a 22 hornet, used in the FN P90 carbine and Five SeveN pistol.
