My last safari to Zimbabwe I used my custom 7x57 as my plains game rifle. Took several Kudu and lesser game, the Kudu at ranges to 275yds. Bullet used was a 175gr Nosler Partition. Totally effective in each case. This rifle was built by Clayton Nelson specifically for 175gr Noslers and is very accurate for 3 shot groups. Has a very light 22" barrel and heats up rather quickly for over 3 shots. Rile weighs exactly 7 lbs and is a delight to carry. It is my favorite plains game choice.
