    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...

    You have a 'solid black finish with freckling' - and that's straight off the internet. The originals had that too, you just got a lot of 'freckling' - you lucky bastard :) Never seen a 'case...
