The BEST WAY to Load the 5.7 x 28mm

OK. I've been reloading 5.7 almost exclusively for about 4 years now. Coating??? What coating???? I don't worry about coating. I treat the brass almost like every other cartridge I've loaded. Yes I'm more delicate when sizing them, but other than that, it's pretty much the same. My #1 suggestion is ...

I Love My Diamondback DBX-57 AND their Customer Service

That's why I love reloading for this caliber. The DBX-57 is the lightest 8" pistol that I know of. Maybe the Kel-Tech is clos...
