the 7x57 is my favorite by far. Ive used it extensively here in the states and on a pile of African game.As pick said above, trajectory wise inside 300 yds. there isnt enough difference between 154, 160 or 175. Using mine as much as I did here in Mt. on deer and elk, plus the elk+ sized African stuff, I shot a lot of 175 gr. Noslers.Just Plain Worked Good.
Then my buddy Mule Deer got me started on Barnes 160 TSX.with a max load of 4831. Shoots a tad better than the 175s, and like the Noslers, it will go through anything....I am one of those who likes maximum leakage out of two holes, and maximum amount of air being let in...
