[QUOTE="Russ Hatch, post: 386244, member: 12444"] I've been shooting a 7x57 since 1979. I shoot the 162 grain a-max on top of ww760 powder lit by a CCI primer. This combination gives me 2500 fps and less than 1/2 inch three shot groups at 100 yds. Before I tried the A-max I used Federal factory loads, 175 grain round nose. About 25 years ago I bought two boxes and when I shot the last one I tried to get more and lo and behold Federal had discontinued them. :D:D So I had to develope the A-max load. I love that 7x57. Light recoil, handy and accurate, what more could you want. [/QUOTE]
