I love it.  Can I get it in hollow point?  Where can I get reloading dies?

Maximum velocities attainable with conventional powders is only 6000 fps. Limited by the velocity of the expanding gases. This can be overcome with higher loading densities. You need to go to solid type propellant. I think there pushing 15,000 fps. Holdover would be a thing of the past.

That is an armor piercing "cop killer" bullet, isn't it...

I don't think you can say the 5.7 would be an ineffective round anymore.

Interesting, but at 15,000 fps is the barrel rifled? Seems like centrefigul force would tear the bullet apart.....

Nobody is going to believe that huge case fires a 5.7mm bullet.   You need to put it in a .30 cal sabot.... :)


Put the 5.7 bullet in a .30/.22 sabot, in a .50/.30 sabot in a .50 BMG case.

Should get a group of arfcom knowlgables to devlope the round and then christen it the 5.7 ARFCOM. Question is who would be willing to manufacture the chamber and mags for it.

I think that if I saw that on a gunshop counter, I'd get that squinty-eyed, scrunchy-faced, head-cocked to the side kind of "WTF?!?" face.

Now....you need to get a barrel chambered for it and launch that bitch downrange through a chrono to see how fast it'll go.

You could use this thing to join the "red mist" club.  With coyotes

You know, I don't want to be the voice of negativity here but that cartridge looks like it may be slightly over-bore....
