I own two 7x57's. one is Rigby HS .275 Rigby (throated for 140 grains). Second is custom Argentine Mauser I purchased here on AH. I do not load my own ammo. My objective is to always (hopefully) be able to purchase readily available ammo that works well. After experiencing with several...

I've tried many different brands but about 10 years ago I settled on Kenetrek boots, with which I've had great luck. Mountain Extremes were my first pair and I still use them today. Just clean 'em up and re wax with Kenetrek's wax. Have never had any leaks whatsoever and can't beat their soles...

I recently purchased a beautiful 7x57 Express Rifle from Vette447. Was a very smooth and pleasurable transaction.

FYI, sent you a couple questions, PM

Purchased a pre-64 Win Mdl 70 from Shako Badhan. He's a "stand up" gentleman! Was a pleasurable transaction from start to finish and made a good friend in the process.
