I have never loaded the Hydro but have extensive experience with the 7x57. Stick to a conventional 140. Any kind of premium at 7x57 needs to be used at very close range to get any kind of consistent performance.





Have you seen the Nosler *Accubond Long Range* bullet in your area?
They are designed to operate at lower velocity than most every other high-BC premium bullet.
I haven't hit game with one yet, but I have tested them in an accurate single shot pistol while in load development. They fly flatter and maintain energy better than the shorter, lower BC conventional bullets. From field reports they appear to do well on game at impact speeds well below the typical bonded bullet threshold.

They look like a good choice for the lower energy cartridges.
In my 7-30 Waters 14" pistol the 150 is supersonic to 1000 yards.
Great for banging steel on the range.
More than plenty of energy inside a common 300 yard hunting range.
