Could not agree more. I have three: RF Sedgley, Merkel SR 1 and a really strange "made for export only" Savage 116.
(Savage also made in 8x57)

I know nothing of overseas hunting laws but was told a HV gun was required in some countries. Suppose since most game is color blind it could make sense.

Also interesting are the 20" barrel, pseudo Express sights and that all the metal surfaces are Nitrided. I made the metal, scope and mounts orange as well with a dip kit. She is very accurate and will hold 1 moa with Speers, Barnes and Noslers. Bought a custom mold for it off castboolits.com that is cut to use 375 gas checks. Looking forward to try it out with it this summer.

Put on your sunglasses !
