I just got my Rifle MAR 09 No 243 Whats with the 8x57 MAGNUM story ? I have never heard of the 8x57 Mauser being called a Magnum ! Is it a typo and should have been called Mauser and someone stuffed up or What? Also can someone explain where the title " 243 Winchester THE LAST OF THE 6 MM 'S "[HANDLOADER NO 241 2006 ] comes from? I'm still confused !
