Still? Or again? I was really tempted to buy one of them from the St. Louis Cabella's a year ago.

Cabela's and Winchester just released 7X57
and 257 Roberts, and 264 Win Mag in Win Mod 70 Lightweight Supreme, available in Cabela's stores, only. (No internet sales).
My 7X57 is a custom DuBeil with laminated stock and LH action. It carries a Leupold VX 3, 2.5-8x36 scope in Conetrol rings and bases. I handload it to 2,950 fps MV (chronographed) with 1 MOA results, and no signs of high pressure, 139/140 grain bullets. Factory loads usually chronograph @ 2,660 fps in my rifle.
It makes me HAPPY, HAPPY, HAPPY!
Even so, if the new Cabela's/Winchester model was available in LH action, I would be tempted to get one.
