Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Ask The Gunwriters Why No Love For The 7 Mauser?

It's pretty easy. If you'll PM me, I'll give you the FEW steps involved.

If others are interested, I'll list them here.

My computer has 'diarrhea' and I have not replaced it yet. I can upload to PB but I can't move them from PB to the 'fire'.

Yeah, give it up! I want to send Ingwe a pic of a nice pig that took a 140 grain C&C to the noggin. I need to count but that must be 20+ for the year.

He's right: Florida is hot and full of people. And wild pigs.

There will be fewer pigs by March 1.....

There will be fewer pigs by January 1!

Don't kill them all!

Not a chance!!

Well, I don't think the .270 barrel has been blued and I have old Winchester tupperware take off stock Andy told me to bring so we could properly weather proof the rifle.....GRIN.....

First go to UR photo bucket acct and click 'upload'.

Second, select the pic or pics, click the Mail (email)

Third, enter your PB acct @upload

Fourth, SEND.

The only tricky part I've found is getting the eMail correct to PB upload.
Other than that it's a snap.

Good Luck, I'd like to see Ingwe red as a tomato. <G>

For the iPad, the instructions are, " turn off the damn iPad, and use a real computer".

Hear! Hear!

Good thing you aren't a Muslim cleric or you would be stoned to death

Bear, but what are you going to shoot with that new build? We do have a few gophers in the yard that need to go.

Man, we'll have the world's greatest rifle. A mercifully Exorcised 7x57 with a proper barrel for a proper caliber in a modern synthetic stock.

Everything from aardvarks to zebras are in dire peril.

Oh, and we also found a use for that vile Rebecca Creek whiskey so beloved of the Poohbah.

We are going to soak the Winchester featherweight wood stock in the foul tasting stuff and use it to start a bonfire on the river bank to light the way for Hoary Old Mauser barrel trot line weights while toasting our success in Glenlivet mixed with Diet Pepsi.

It will be total debauchery ....GRIN..

You 7x57 aficionados have definitely been beamed up somewhere.


Let's see, the 7x57 is:
1. complicated...twist, pressure, deep throated
2. sensitive to fashion or trends
3. fashion conscious
4. must be worthy
5. often stated as sexy
6 Grandoise (turns hogs over bait into a Corbett story)
7. The Grand Poobah is not even using one on his Corbett quest.

And you call the 270 gay?

I can think of very few 7x57 rifle that would not benefit from a 270 Win chambered barrel.

Loading a few more rounds of 7x57 as we speak. Making sure there are more in this world to keep everything on track and spinning correctly.

Back in a few, getting ready to seat bullets and gotta re-check throat depth on this one.

Cabelas in Hammond Indiana had 6 257 Bob Super Grades last week discounted to $1014. Don't understand the shrapnel on top of the grand but this is a huge discount on what they were.

All had juicy stocks too.

Dat wasn't very nice. I think you probably hurt Poob's feelings. Besides, Corbett shot over bait too.

They're not much for pulled pork and cole slaw, are they.

Well,in my Featherweight 7x5, I use 160 gr Sierra GK. In my CZ 7x57,I use 160 gr Nosler Partitions. No longer going load the 175 gr NP in the CZ.

Here you go, Poobs. Not to turn this into a grandiose Corbett story, but...



Sorry about it being a bit dark, but it was a bit dark when I shot the pig and took the picture.

Here is one a guest took this morning.



They had to use the hoist holding the feeder to get him on the truck.



Since that one too was a bar - the rancher cut a few piglets a couple of years ago and let them go - this one went to a meat processor. The fellows had already removed the head when the processor weighed him: 325 pounds. That's a lot of bacon!
