One should stop dreaming nowadays about the cartridge 7x57.

The cartridge 7x57 is a good cartridge, but for a very limited use. In our times it is about, as it was also back then, about shooting at long range at game like the Deer in Scotland, but nowadays we have much better cartridges and rifles for it compared to back then.

I own a rifle from David Lloyd caliber 7mm Remington Magnum that was intended for hunting Deer in Scotland in the past, but that was only offered with the most suitable calibers for this purpose, meant among others 244 H&H Magnum, 25-06 Remington, 264 Winchester Magnum und later 7mm Remington Magnum.

The good reputation of the cartridge 7x57 rests only on the use of the heavy bullet on heavy game at short distance, as usual in Africa at the past.
