i gave my dad a sporterized fn 98 mauser carbine in 7x57 with a older 3x weaver on it in the mid 60,s, it was very light and easy to carry as my dad was a slightly built man at 5'4" and 140 lbs. i loaded 154 gr hornady round nose bullets at 2500 fps and he killed a pile of deer and a few black bear with that rifle and load. when he passed in 2007 my sister gave it to her husband and he sold it to pay for truck repairs with out telling me. i have looked for it since then with out finding it.
