Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles 9x57mm(ish)???

Been kicking around ideas for a future project. Does anyone here have any experience with the 9x57 Mauser? I'm thinking if a guy did one with a .358" bore(vs. the original .356") he could basically duplicate .358 Win performance at lower pressure and still be ok with factory 9x57 ammo(assuming he lived in Wonderland and actually came across some for something that out of the mainstream)...

I know, 9.3 would make more sense and all that...but it wouldn't be different, I like different.
