My favorite load for my 7x57 is the Hornady or Sierra boattail and 49.5grs H4350.

In the typical long throated 7X57 a flat base bullet might be more accurate.

Of course different rifles sometimes prefer different bullets. My 7x57 Brno ZKK preferred Hornady C'nC flat-base 139 grain Spitzer bullets.

Good bullet combo...with that cartridge..

I admit to using IMR 4895, RL 15, IMR 4064 powder charges with that bullet with MVs from 2400 to 2800 fps...

if I need more MV I have other calibers that will accomplish that need..
