I have in my possession a Westley Richards sporter, originally in 8X57, with a shot out barrel. I had it rebored to .358" and chambered to 9X57, so if I can get my chronograph cooking after a long period of inactivity, I should be able to answer that question.

The barrel had been shortened when I acquired it, for no good reason I can ascertain, and a new, inappropriate (too high) front sight fitted. The action, however, an original Oberndorf commercial model, is untouched.
