Glad you have it and HOPE is is a straight 7x57 and not AI messed up.
Just so you know that your statement is BS. They don't call it Ackley IMPROVED because it is inferior to the 7X57mm. And "messed up" is your way of thinking.
Gotta go with Bart on this one, Paul.
Having an Ackley built rifle is great. Having one in an Ackley cartridge is like icing on the cake, whether it is to shoot or to fondle.
