Thanks Neale,
Truth be known, I did not really have plans to get a 7x57mm but as soon as I saw it I jumped on it as the price was very reasonable. Only problem is this and another Greek MS that was picked up at the same time have depleted my stock money for the 9x57. These things happen.

I've been looking at some older posts and I noticed that you have Warne QD's for your BRNO's. Do these feature a recoil stop (for the cut-out in the LHS of the rear bridge)?

I too have a friend that has a ZG 47 that I hope to convince him to sell one day.
