I have 3 featherweights, and they all seem to balance very nicely, and both for the wife and my son...

since he has been about 12, his favorite is the one in 223...

the other two are the 7 x 57 which is factory, and the other is 6.5 x 55, which is has a Pac Nor barrel on it.. it came from the factory with an 06 barrel, but that and a couple more of them were shot out before I ended up with it...needing a new barrel of course.. got it for $300, which wasn't a bargain at the time necessarily.. but considering it also came with a 6.5 x 20 Leupold on top.. I didn't come out bad at all..

one the 6.5 x 55, I put a 26 inch barrel on that one... hence I was wondering if your 7 x 57 had a longer barrel on it...
