7x57




Aka the .275 Mauser. Using its correct nomenclature.

Definitely not dead. Since the new Rigby making a great resurgence in Mauser actioned rifles.

One of the oldest modern cartridges. Both a sporting and military history.

It suffered in US eyes again because factory ammo was often underloaded due to liability concerns about some weak old rolling block 7x57s.

Zero need for 7mm08s other than marketing branding. No need for a .270 either in my opinion.

Bullet weights best 140 grs to 175 grs.

Used for everything from small game, better for medium game, to if course numerous elephant by Bell.

I don't have one but would love a classic styled Mauser in 7x57 wow old Rigby, Jeffery, H&H, WR etc. Maybe a Dorleac! If I am ever lucky enough.
