I can't believe folks shoot a 7x57 that isn't in a rolling block.
What is the world coming to? Kids today....

Y'all are making me want one!
Rev, just give it up and bite the long parallel sided bullet! Think I could turn one into an Ingwe Special? Who would do the work on something as unique as that? By the way, I shot another of your Florida pigs last evening. Go over to the Corbett thread and look. Pretty messy down here right now.

As for the gnarly ones; they're mostly nocturnal. That's how they live long enough to get big and gnarly. The "eaters" generally come out during some level of shooting and light...and don't.

I know you like the 7MM mauser. However, you live in the same state as Gulf Breeze Arms and they have a Cooper in 270 Winchester with English Walnut that beats the Winchester Cabelas to hell. That is the gun that I would be bluechipping for. ![[Linked Image]](http://i1094.photobucket.com/albums/i460/kaboku68/100457886_104_4613F0F84BFC1250_zps7a0d1e51.jpg)

Oooh...that would make Jack O'Connor drool if he were here. He'd no doubt slap a Weaver K4 on it and go after Stone Sheep.
It may be an optical illusion but to me the Cooper pistol grips and forends look a little fat.

Wow, very nice. Wonder what Cooper would charge to screw a 7x57 onto the action?  Seriously, that's really nice.

I gotta believe ingwe was sodomized by a .270 when he was young, for him to have such an irrational dislike for the cartridge.
I also believe he was tended to by some effeminate European person who steered him towards that decrepit old 7x57.
That's the only explanation that makes sense.
You can roll a turd in peanuts, dip it in chocolate, and it still ain't no damn Baby Ruth.

The Cabelas rifle would be just right��.. Other than the fact it says "Cabela's" on the floor plate. Now maybe if it said "Ingwe Special" on the floor plate, it would have a certain amount of cool factor. The guys in Portugal would probably miss spell Ingwe, but that's besides the point...

I think those were made before Portugal. Besides it wouldn't be difficult to exchange the floorplate for steel. But you are right: they could not spell Ingwe. As a matter of fact there is no voice recognition software on the face of the earth that recognizes that name. Trust me on that one. It usually comes out igloo.

Can I load it on my phone? Is it free? Is it really worth it just for one word? I expect the answer to all three is no.
