Had a 6.5 Swede.  Own .308 (first buck this year with it), 30-06, 30-30, 338Fed., 375, etc.

 

My newest is a 7x57.  

 

The load data it came with it showed it seems to prefer lighter bullets in the Krieger 1-10 twist barrel.  I'm going to play around with 140/160's and see how it goes.  Perhaps the 154 gr. if I can get it under 1 1/2 inches.

 

Reason: Nostalgia and the fact that for all intents and purposes, it will do anything the other cartridges in the 25-06,308 up to about 30-06 will do at normal ranges with standard weight bullets.

 

Really, I just like to be different and like older cartridges that still do anything the new ones do.  Newer bullets just make them better.
