Had this out yesterday at the range along with a new-to-me double rifle in 450 BPE. Very windy and cold for North Carolina, but on the plus side I had the range to myself. I don't do well with irons anymore, and all I had on hand for 7x57 was some ancient 1937 vintage DWM ammo, but I was very pleased with the results. Nice shooting rifle. Looking forward to putting a scope on it to see what it can do. Or getting my nephew to shoot it.
