Can't wait to stretch its legs...

Keep an eye on Palmetto State Armory, they run specials on the FNH 40gr Vmax ammo every so often and sometimes it'll even include free shipping. A couple years ago the had it on sale for 16.99 and free shipping so I stocked up. They had another similar sale awhile back.These 5.7x28's aren't the easiest thing to reload for so I don't even mess with reloading for mine.

I’m interested in your brass if you have saved it.
Brought back a two year old thread from the dead!
How impossible would it be to find ammo or components?
I did a little reloading but stopped for now. I load for about 25 different chamberings but this little round is very easy to load to dangerous pressures so I get nervous. Additionaly the brass has a coating on it that i understand comes off with abrasive tumbling techniques and I have not set myself up for ultrasonic cleaning.I do have 3 gallons of spent brass waiting for me when i am ready to start though!

I’ve got the Ruger 5.7. Nice gun, very accurate. Downside is the trigger reset. I’ve taken up the slack of the trigger safety but didn’t pull then released- it sometimes then clicks and the trigger safety will not depress again unless you rack the slide. Really like the cartridge and the pistol otherwise.
