good caliber, but that's about it. i would get new kimber or winchester from sc instead. these are NEW rifles which are easy to scope. new ruger rifle with rings would be less expensive.
i looked at near mint 7x57 pre-war mauser sporter with peep sight priced at $1500. i bought cz550 battue mannlicher 9,3x62 instead. why? got new rifle 1", 30mm rings, Kahles Helia 1,5-6x42 scope, 4 boxes of norma ammo for just under 1500US. sometimes there is nothing quite like new equipment.
