Each to his own, but the heavier bullet bucks the wind and the 7mm range goes to 180g
The 7x57R handloaded will outperform the 6.5mm.
Depending on what the Ferlach guns are, ie if needing regulation loads etc.
I would go for the 7x57R before the 6.5x57R.
I would go for the 6,5x57R, a lovely cartridge that is nothing to sneeze at. A 140 grain 6,5 bullet do the trick on all game in Europe. In a modern kiplauf with Jäger block action you can load the 6,5x57R to a very good performance.
