Makes me wonder why I spent so much time with magnums before. I do have some fun memories from the 300 wsm working up some deadly accurate and fast loads for the 180 accubond. They have their place and only they do what they do, but since getting into bowhunting, I’ve lost much of my interest in the long shots. So these tamer rounds suddenly seem like a new great thing - even though the 7x57 was developed in 1892!
edit: forgot to mention, I’ll eventually be looking to build a lightweight 7x57 on a tikka action. Just need to find one on the cheap (possibly barrel shot out)
