And that one wouldn't have counted.

That case necked down to the 22 cal ought to produce some heat...maybe flame out of a 20". Had to look the Cheetah up and imagine it would too...:)


It's not about the 57mm case getting more play for play's sake. It's that a Mauser is a x57 rifle and they work the easiest with a x57 cartridge. Besides, why not use an intermediate length case in an intermediate length action.
