Reloading 5.7x28

[Ardent]

Hi folks, just became the proud new owner of an FN Five Seven, now I need to load for it...

Any direction on dies and brass? Does it take standard .224" bullets? Anyone have brass to sell, or dies for that matter? Possible to form brass from any other cal, like .221 Fireball? (not even familiar case head diameter)

ANY info at all you may have regarding 5.7x28 reloading will be fantastic

Thanks!

Yes, they do accept standard .224" bullets, We carry the dies, reloading data is pretty easy to find on the net, just work up slowly. Remember the five-seven is a blow-back pistol, so overpressure rounds can cause damage even is just slightly overpressured.

It is not possible to form the brass from any other available caliber brass, for used brass check the auction sites that is the only place I have seen it.
