[QUOTE="6.5-300 BEE, post: 1885477, member: 113845"] The 7x57 will not work well in a short action. If you believe the short action myths you are SOL. It will not do anything the 7mm08 cannot BUT has a much higher "cool factor". Think about the 260 Remington and the 6.5x55 ---- same story. Both the old timers have more case capacity and, in a modern action, can slightly outperform the 308 based rounds. They are all excellent cartridges with light recoil and the ability to kill any lower 48 game with proper bullet choices. Just get which you prefer and go hunting. [/QUOTE]
