An absolutely fantastic and dependable older cartridge. The thread reminds me of the wildest story I ever heard in a gun store. Seems this old boy was bad mouthing all the more modern cartridges, magnums, etc., said the only cartridge needed was the 8x57 Mauser. Sight it dead on at 300yds, claimed the bullet starts to rise after 300 and all you have to do is hold on hair from there to 1000yds. DRT. Rolling Eyes Goatwhiskers


edit: my bad, this was supposed to respond to the earlier post.
