FWIW, I don't see that you have a 'dog in this fight'.
That said, I'll do what I want to satisfy my curiosity, whether that means asking my dealer, or asking my dealer to ask the Winchester rep.

I never thought I'd grow up to be a grumpy old man, but I did, and I'm killin' it.

GFY "FWIW," the point went way the f*ck over your head. I wouldn't waste anyone's time nor lower myself to asking stupid f*cking questions if I were you. But that's me. If you think asking a lot of horseshit, stupid-f*cking-questions improves whatever status you think you have, ask the f*ck away. Moron.

26 inches on a 7x57 is criminal stupid. 22 or 23 is all it needs. Spence Agreed. Asked the local dealer to call the Winchester rep and get the straight scoop on barrel length for the current 7x57 offering. We'll see what they come back with. You need to quit buying into and repeating every obvious piece of bullshit you read on the internet. You're wasting "the Winchester rep's" time as well as "your" dealer's asking this. Listen to Brick on this...he is correct. ...pissy, but correct.
