[QUOTE="Buster Hemlock, post: 1732404, member: 109327"] Again it's all guesses on our part but having looked at a few 7x57 mausers and knowing a few guys that have turned them into 284's, your rifle may have the original barrel that was set back and then rechambered and the contour turned down near the chamber. I've even heard of guys not setting them back when going to 284 and just allowing the slightly longer neck area of the chamber basically causing a longer free bore before the lead begins. [/QUOTE]
