A few years back I was astounded at a gun show to see a HiWall in 7x57R, so marked, with perfect Winchester lettering, nickel steel etc., the usual factory language, on the barrel. Looked through the bore which was new and the reamer marks across the lands were prominent, suspect it would foul like crazy. Then about a month ago one of the dealers at the Greenwich CT gun show had a C. Sharps 1885 in that calibre, no effort at fakery. Fancy wood, etc., good looking rifle but No. 3 weight barrel which is really too much for a deer rifle.
