Any Favorite FN 5.7 x 28 mm Reload Recipes?
« on: December 21, 2007, 07:07:42 PM »
Just in case I get the time, I hope to pull out some reloading equip. and dies and load some 5.7 x 28 mm rounds.  I've got some 40 gr Hornady V-Max, 30 gr. flat base Berger moly-coats and 40 gr. flat base Berger moly-coats to load up.  So...if anyone has some pet loads for the Five SeveN or PS-90 I'd appreciate a tip or two. 

Also...I wonder if the moly bullets will mimic SS190 round performance?  Not much information out there since the "Brady Bunch" wants to ban this round...hence me poking around for some information on cartridge recipe's because the manufacturers aren't developing the round. 

I'm planning on loading for plinkers and personal defense rounds.

MB had a good radio show on the 5.7 on the show numbered 11-mb062007 ... starting about 20 minutes into the show.

Have been trying to get into WW reloading site to no avail.  If I do maybe I can get you some.  Unless you have info from that site.

Correct me if I am wrong, but don't you have to treat those cases like rifle cases?  ( triming, deburing and etc)

Really kewl.  If you haven't you should listen to MB's podcast ( 11-mb062007 )about it.  Shoots well, no jams with over 500 rounds, accurate and ....fast.  The bullet is supposed to be a manstopper (see MP's podcast about 20 minutes into it) but it definitely does not overpenetrate.....which I think is good for home defense.

For the PS-90....it would be something to use for home defense or getting "tactical" with varmints in the fruit trees.

The Five SeveN may be the ideal pistol for a woman...not much recoil and plenty of rounds.

Trimmed & deburred.  Length is critical and...it's suggested to use flat based bullets so you have to bell the mouth to move a lot of product..

Finally got on to the WW reloading site but can't find any data under rifle or pistol that might help.  Sorry!  Have a good holiday season.
