[QUOTE="davkrat, post: 512356, member: 6452"] That is something that has amazed me for many years. I don't own a Mauser but I find it fascinating that in the last 100 years we have come full circle to basically designing the exact cartridge that the German's developed from the get go. All the super efficient cartridges like .308, .260, 7mm-08 etc. basically are the old Mauser with a few tweaks. How they figured out such an efficient round without computers and at the inception of modern cartridge firearms is truly amazing! I'd say take the 7X57 just for Nostalgia and the cool factor. After all who doesn't reload? [/QUOTE]
