Yeah, I’d like a medium bore for “big game “ comp at my local range, but it’s outside my budget for putting holes in paper. I’ve just built up a 7x57 on a ruger “tang safety” in 7x57, and am looking at a rifle for “rook rifle” class (32-20 possibly ) or “settlers rifle “ class in which a lever gun in 357/44mag will meet the rules shooting lead. This type of rifle with full power loads would be reasonably useful as a hunting rifle, so it’s dual purpose and flexible in use. At least that’s my reasoning. lol
