Editor’s Note: Recently the Outdoor Wire Digital Network took part in an event called the “5.7 Fest.” Held at Range Ready/GunTalk Media facilities near New Orleans, Louisiana, the event was billed as a “celebration of all things 5.7.” The event was designed to give invited media time on the 5.7x28 platform in three manufacturers’ decidedly configurations. While participating, we took the opportunity to talk with Ruger’s Tabor Bright about the round irrespective of manufacturer. Bright knows the 5.7x28 cartridge, having worked with it at FN -the company that originated the round for their Personal Defense Weapon (PDW) - and Ruger. If you have been intrigued by the 5.7x28, the conversation between OWDN Publisher Jim Shepherd and Bright might be helpful in deciding whether it’s a round you’re interested in exploring. We all know no single caliber is perfect for everyone. But the little 5.7x28 does raise some intriguing possibilities.
