Recently loaded 100 rounds of 7.62 x 25 using the Sierra 85 grain and Titegroup .Amazed at the accuracy difference over factory ammunition.Even though my bore slugs at .312 the .308 diameter Sierras are an improvement over factory ammo.
Next I'm going to try some Ho
rnady .312 XTP's over Red Dot .
Hope to get some pictures of targets next shoot.
 
Been reloading for my Tokarev (also an M57) for about 7 or 8 years.
Accuracy is VASTLY improved over factory ammo.

Berry's .30 Carbine bullets - 110 gr. over 8.0 gr of Accurate # 5.
Data from Lee's Modern Reloading 2nd Ed. - for a JACKETED bullet.
So this is a bit overloaded.

Velocity is in the 1,300+ fps.

Remember to start low & work up.
