[QUOTE="TheDoubleD, post: 3832793, member: 43754"] There is no need to pull bullets and load down 7 x 57 commercial ammo. It is already loaded down for old guns. I need to load up for my Ruger No. 1 in 7 x 57 to get top performance. For all the rest factory loads are just fine. There is a "sorta" exception. The Remington Rolling Blocks 7 x 57's have a very springy action. Case heads have a tendency to separate because of that. The block springs, rolling back and the top of the case right in front of the head will stretch. You can slow that down by timing your brass. File a small notch in the rim and always load that notch to the 12 o'clock position in the chamber. That won't stop the stretch but will slow it down. Two or three reloads at best an RB. My Boer 93/95 Mauser-Chilean Mauser is a good shooting gun un altered. A previous sporter built on a Swede Mauser was very accurate. That is one of those guns on my list of "shoulds never sold". There is another 7 x 57 Swede Sporter in progress in storage, that I should finish some day. [/QUOTE]
