... There can be noticeable differences in dimensions in 6.5x55 brass, especially in head-size between American and European brands. True!!! And had I known that before I built my Sweed, I would have built a 7x57. My Sweed is a tack driver and I love it but I only use Norma bra$$. Winchester and Remington are too inconsistent. PS I second the 6.8x57 a.k.a. the .270 Ingwe

Rancho_Loco - "I'm pretty sure even David would have considered the 7x57 archaic." What IF it was endorsed by Moses? Honestly "6.5 Swede" just sounds waay cooler than plain vanilla "7X57 Mauser". At the range the Swede's always get more on-lookers than anyone using a 7MM anything - LOL. Homesteader That's why you get .275 Rigby stamped on the barrel.

[quote=elkhunternm][quote=mjbgalt]Finishing a Mauser build and can go either way. Could do a .270 Ingwe. Which is a 7x57 necked down to .277" with no other changes. Be the first on your block to have something 99.999% of the population never even heard of. Just a thought....if you necked the 7x57 down to .270 and then blew the shoulder angle out to 40 degrees, as in an Ackley Improved, then you would have something that 99.9999% never heard of. Heck, with an article or two extolling it's virtues, you could become an internet sensation. Anyhow....just a thought Sure and call II... Ingwe Improved. Glad everyone had a sense of humor about that, was not trying to bash. I was actually thinking of "7 Mauser/.270 Ingwe Improved Super-Blooper"

Both the 7x57 and 6.5x55 have worked well for me for hunting whitetail deer. If I had to choose one, I'd go with the 7x57.

"7X57" in the not so distant past. Homesteader

The 7x57 Mauser is the do-it-all-cartridge wise.
Were your wife a 7x57, she would wake you up with a BJ, then go make coffee for you naked, letting you examine her curvature whilst enjoying said coffee, only to really start of your day on the kitchen table.
Then she heads of to her high paying job and comes back at night with your favorite food, cold beer and a new rifle, asking "How was your day?" and saying "Hope, you missed me as much as I did you." really saying: "Lets hit the sack."
Pleasure on oh so many levels - thats the 7x57 Mauser.
There is just no reason to complain.

You know, Doc, trouble with most wifes is, they are 7x57 ish enough to marry them, but turn .300 RUM on you once a month.

And a 280 Remington is even more cooler & a 280 AI is even more cooler.

I vote 7x57.
Mainly because you sold me an accurate Douglas 6.5x55 Mauser barrel a few years ago. If you didn't like it then, why do you think you would like it now?
