Default RE: 7X57

Took my first deer with one, a 175 grain slower than molasses factory load. Did a great job though. I have taken a few others with handloads from 160 grain down to 140 grain. I like the round immensely. It can provide large game ballistics and almost varmint-like capabilities. Can be quite mild recoiling also. Good case for reloading.
