7x64 Brenneke Load Data & Ballistics Calculator

Estimate chamber pressure and muzzle velocity for the 7x64 Brenneke with the free, in-browser MyLoads internal-ballistics simulator. The figures below are illustrative estimates from a physics model — not a recommended recipe. Always cross-check a current published loading manual.

7x64 Brenneke reference

Maximum average pressure (MAP)55,000 psi
Nominal case capacity69.0 gr H₂O
Groove / bullet diameter0.284 in (7.21 mm)

Example simulation illustrative

Bullet
Hornady 0.284 139 gr GMX
Powder
Hodgdon Superformance
Charge
51.5 gr
Barrel
22 in

Muzzle velocity

2,661 fps

Peak chamber pressure (interval, ±10% burn-rate)

29,678 – 39,185 – 50,199 psi

nominal is 71% of the 55,000 psi maximum average pressure

Illustrative example — every figure is an estimate; always confirm your load against a current published manual before loading.

Use MyLoads as a 7x64 Brenneke velocity and pressure calculator: it estimates muzzle velocity, muzzle energy and the full chamber-pressure curve for your own powder, charge and barrel length, compared against the reference facts above.
