7x57 Mauser Performance

[GWN]

Hi everyone, every once in a while a thread regarding the 7x57 Mauser pops up and the comments are generally quite favorable.

This is a round that has always piqued my interest but I don't know anyone who has one. Those of you who have one and have used it what you think of it? Is it a cartridge you would be comfortable carrying and using as an all-around Alberta cartridge? What do you see as its strengths and limitations?

I have an older Ruger long action rifle that I am thinking of rebarrelling and this is a cartridge I have in mind for it.

Thanks for your comments and opinions
