    It's a 7x57R always has been and always should be

    I was just taking the piss
    And I like the way the Europeans designate their caliber and length
    Very helpful
    Unlike the American system that does give at least a clue
    Then there's the British where things get quite messy with so many variations on a single bore and then they throw in another word to add to the confusion
    Marty Henry and whanahuia like this.

    I also was taking the wee. It's the likes of Bell and his antics with elephants who made the rigby name popular. British is always better than German?

    British big bores are better than German
    German medium bores are better than British
    British stocks and Express sights are better than German
    And without doubt the Germans make the very best cuckoo clock rifles ( cuckoo clock guns are fully load with every imaginable feature that doesn't actually make it shoot better )
