   I looked after a lot of those dudes - some so old their tattoos had faded and melted and couldn't be see for what they were any more. Many were war vets and they were there because they couldn't look...

   Oh, forgot to add - I think shopping for a gun and cartridge today is a bit like shopping for a handbag ............. and the manufacturers know it. Weatherby certainly knew it back in the day...

   It just comes down to what you like I suppose - I've had 7mm Rem mag, .280, .270 and I've fired a bunch of others - and some gave me more recoil than I was comfortable with, and the 7x57 never did...

   I’ll put my hand up for one. Even though I posses a rifle in said caliber, you would have to add the .260Rem. Like many others, it’s only handloading keeping it alive given the scarcity of factory...

   Maybe. But I shoot a modern 303. Also for break open or single shot rifles, rimmed cartridges like those work very well. With modern rifles made in the calibres, more modern performance can be...

   I thought the 7x57 did - when me and my mates upgraded from the .303 we all got 7x57's. At that time I thought they were two only two calibres (apart from .22). Then one day my BSA couldn't hit a...

    Have a look at the list of cartridges (not calibres ffs!) in Quickload and mesmerise yourself at the sheer number of cartridges you’ve never even heard of. So many odd little men in their sheds...
