Who sells/distibutes rifle
bullets for the 9 x 57 in America?

You can get some from www.hawkbullets.com
The .035 jkt should be about right for 9x57 velocities.

Thanks, I forgot Hawk. Any recommendation on where to put a crimping groove?

harry,
bring a couple boxes.. i've got a corbin and a ch4d groover.... and you can talk me out of the ch4d pretty reasonably

sierra 225 .358's shoot pretty welling in 9x57... just work your load up from minimum

IF cartridge cases that have been fired in your rifle will allow you to drop a regular .358" bullet into them before resizing, you can shoot .358 bullets in your 9X57mm.

I once had a friend in TX whose husband left her a 9X57mm Mauser and a drilling in 9X57R. Both of these had chamber neck diameters sufficient to allow a .358 bullet to freely drop into fired cases, despite having barrel groove diameters that slugged .354" and .353" respectively.

We used Speer 250-grain .358 bullets in both - with necked up 8X57JS brass in the Mauser and necked-up Norma 7X57R cases in the drilling. Both worked perfectly. I loaded her ammo with .358 Winchester dies!

Thanks for the help everyone.
