I have tested a fixed bolt 5.7 system a few times and pressures are nuts without the normal shoulder movement. While Savage created a bolt action that worked they had had to flute the chamber, like a CETME rifle does. That allowed case expansion to deal with the pressure in a locked bolt system. The...

Did you look in the 5.7 re loading section?

Yes this is an issue and it's hard to find now older Trim Pro 2's that use the plate system.

Made worse by the fact I/EA no loner make the plates. Our last run of plates took 10years to sell out.

I have Lyman 2 die set that has the de cap and resize as the same die.

Hence the picture right from their website

If you are having issue with the mouth being to small, than why you relying on the de capper only and not using the second die>

And it's supposed to, didn't you see my picture of the Lyman resizing die?

You are missing a part of your die.

In parlance it's referred to as a "Ball"

The knurled section is just there to aid in changing the de capper pin. It's NOT for resizing.

Also give this video a watch.

Welcome to the forum.

CH4D are the best, get the separate crimping die.

Hornady is second best, they don't make a crimp die, so get the CH4D crimp die.

CH4D and Hornady shell holders work perfect.

Honestly after that, all other 5.7 dies from them suck.

Something else is going on.

In that first pic, the shoulder of the case looks bumped out.

What brass is this?

Honestly I don't thing the sizer ball is the issue.

For resizing CH4D is the best with Hornady coming in second.

You can also with CH4D you can order a custom sizer ball, but to the best of my memory I haven't seen an issue with the CH4D sizer ball.

All my Lyman for the 5.7x28mm was thrown into the scrap pile a long time ago.

I have never been impressed with the Lyman dies.

One shot should work just fine. You may have to polish the inside of your sizing die.

I have no clue, no one ever started a data base for the magazine codes that I know of.

Panzermk2, do you know if Elite Ammunition has made any adjustments to their 5.7x28mm rounds to better suit the MRD MK3 slide design, especially since it’s optics-ready?

Why would I do anything? They just made an overly complicated slide. Weight, internal parts are all the same except for one part that is a little shorter. In fact a MK2 slide will work on a MRD MK3 lower and a MRD MK3 slide works just fine on a MK2 In fact the MRD MK3 slide will work on ALL FsN pist...

Welcome to the forum.

Please supply list of powders you can get.

Move you chrono at least 10 feet and even better 15 feet from the muzzle. The thermal cloud with the bullet inside of if is often ignored by the chrono software as an error.

Annoying as hell, I have a chrono rant post here on the forum from years ago.

Yes they use different mags. FNH for the MK3 MRD changed the mag well lip and changed the magazine base plate. There are three type of FsN Magazines, DOA to Gen4 USG used the same magazine. It's feed lips where prone to breaking so FNH added a full rib running up the front of the magazine. About hal...

I use Lyman dies for 5.7 and have no issues. I do have a separate LEE crimp die that I got lucky on and was able to setup and use in addition to the roll crimp the Lyman does

Only man to ever get a working Lee crimp die on the first try.

Sounds like velocity, pressure curve, or feeding issues. Is the problem FTF, FTE, or inconsistent expansion? What firearm?

Welcome to the forum.

No I suggested the separate crimper die. The 5.7 needs to be crimped and it has to be a separate action.

I looks like the shoulder isn't being bumped back enough.

Measure the base of the case, make sure it's not bulged also.

See response to your other post,

Welcome to the forum!

Crimping with the seating die never works. Even on my RCBS dies on my other rifle cartridges I always crimp as a stand alone action. Doing both with the 5.7 is doomed. The best dies are made by CH4D, Hornady is the second best. They have a stand alone crimp die, I suggest you get one. https://www.ch...

You have to use a third party image hosting site, we are working on upgrading the forum software and hardware.

This is the sight I use currently https://imgur.com/

Now that you are a member you can see the hand loading section.

We make people join to see it. It's not much but it helps keep folks from just skimming the data and putting on their forum and pages as their own data.

Also how are you crimping? Hornady only makes a 2 die set.

Running the decapper to low will also help buckle the shoulder. Honestly this is the best source for loading info on the 5.7. Forum has crashed over the years and we are working to update the software, but it's been around well over 25 years. All the data posted has been vetted and we even have a de...

All of the AE brass is FNH brass.

1) how did you process the brass?

2) I suspect the issue is your re sizer adjustment. You might have the re sizer adjust to far down and you are creating a shoulder bump. Hornady dies have zero issues.

They spammed the hell out of them, it reminded me of the way SCCY puts out a 100 different colors and dips of their pistols.

Still working on a server upgrade.

Well you like to take your time.............................

Yeah watch my video. You do not want to tumble the brass.

Luke warm water 1 part simple green to 5 parts water. Bucket hand agitate every 5 minutes at the 20 min mark rinse in luke arm water and let air dry. Do not dry in the oven or with heat since it will heat cycle the coating.

RCBS and Lee dies SUCK for the 5.7x28mm. In fact the worst does you can buy for the 5.7 are the RCBS. Your best option 1) CH4D and get the third separate crimp dies 2) Hornady 2 die set combined with the separate CH4D crimp die. How did you clean your brass? Also give this a watch. https://youtu.be/...

I have over a dozen channel locks and this pair has 1 job.

Well most guns don't like the shit copy cat rounds from vg.

You're welcome, it's why I make the big bucks LOL

It's more compact over all, but the barrel isn't. The barrel is just barely long enough.

I use a very large set of channel locks with the jaws wrapped in electrical tape. I then open them up in the slot that allows the jaws to pinch those tabs. Also same system for normal magazines.

I also forgot to mention too polish your sizer die body with Mothers polish on a cleaning patch. Also try partially sizing , drop down and then go again. So staged sizing. Also even un tumbles range brass you never know just how PRE compromised the coating was. Years ago I got a bunch of range pick ...

Red tips are just Hornady V-max and they have a very jacket and soft core. So pulling them ruins the bullet most times. In the past we have sold pulled SS197 bullets but again they were pulled with our system that didn't destroy them .

Well it's been almost 20 years since I loaded 1X 5.7 brass. So lube, for the 5.7 I always went light. I made my own mix that I still use for other brass. It's a blend of lanolin and secret sauce. With the 5.7 less is more. One shot is a light lube. Re sizing dies, never a fan of the RCBS 5.7 dies, N...

The chamber is not fluted, the spent cases are pristine.

That does not mean there isn't something the chamber and unless you start measuring things just looking at them with the naked eye doesn't always tell you everything.

Wouldn't that kind of case pressure show on extracted cases?

Not always. Sometimes firing pins will get stuck.

The chamber is not fluted, the spent cases are pristine. I plan on trying very low pressure loads I will probably start with Trail Boss just to see stability and velocity, I would guess slower shotgun powders could be used. As for the locking lugs there pretty tiny, idk how to post photos on here b...

Welcome to the forum. You're in new territory with that gun. Yes it's a bolt gun and often with bolt guns for match loads you just neck size. Not sure this rifle and here is why. When you fire the 5.7 from a locked breach you run extremely hi pressures. The 5.7 was designed around a blowback action....

Depends, do you want to shoot through them or have then survive?

20 feet is was I use if there is a chance that the 5.7 won't shoot through it.

Shit ammo, stay away from it.

A lot of the published data is not really that good and most of it never actually fired out of a fire arm. Those magazine articles, some of them over 15 years old, just don't work very well.

Good idea!

Cool welcome to the forum!

I haven't received one to T&E ether and that makes me very nervous.

Price point, well yes it's cheap and that has me concerned , yet there are some damn good guns that come out of Turkey.

We made 5.7 brass but COVID killed our in house program.

Always save ANY brass not just 5.7

FNH does not sell that bullet retail or wholesale. This is why I/EA use SS195 and SS198 as the source for the 27gr bullet used in the EA S4. The FNH design is protected.

You might have used to much lube. 5.7 likes the lighter sizing lubes like one shot

Also polish the inside of your sizer body.

Well for one thing you would load 5.7 the same no matter what platform. Do you have any pics? The Lee dies are shit FOR the 5.7 are shit, it could be the sizer, the seater or their horrid crimp die.

Interesting.

Knowing Keltec's complete lack of quality we will see how this works.

I've had them jam & the bullet would get "bent" on occasion; I'd just put them off to the side for pull down later. IMO though, if the case neck itself is bent, it isn't worth trying to straighten. Just pull it down with the hammer & use the bullet in a new round, toss the brass into your recycling...
