Partsman - agree, but I have quite a few that he built, including ones he built for my 2 daughters on Mauser actions - 257 Roberts and a 6.5x55.

He tends to like the classic rounds, and I'm not sure why he didn't make this one a 7x57, so was just checking to see what it would take. I'll probably just leave it as is and work on it feeding - the sharper shoulder of the 7-08 creates some issues.
