Hi, I recently got a Blaser K95 Stutzen in 7x57R. I was thinking of trying the Hornady 150gr ELD-X bullet, just wondering if anyone has tried it or has any other bullet or load recommendations. (I already have a 7x64 in the R8 where I use the 162gr and 175gr ELD-X).
Also is there anything in particular to keep in mind when loading for a Kipplauf? Thanks.

Re: 7x57R projectile recommendations
I'm using 175gr interlocks but I'm thinking of going back to 140gr nosler ballistic tips. I'm shooting in a BBF97 so my barrel will be a couple of inches longer.
I also have a 7x65R which uses the same bullet. You might want to rationalise on the 162gr eldx

Great caliber!
