Putting my C&R to use, I recently purchased a French MAS 36 and Steyr M95 to add to my collection. Neither have arrived yet, but the cartridges for them have. The 7.5x54 is a standard looking cartridge, but when I cracked open a box of Hornady 8x56R I kid you not, I think I got a headache.
I know many would think this is silly and perhaps it is, but for me aesthetics fall into proportional dimensions. Sports cars, fighter jets, women... and yes, cartridges.
Not that it matters a hoot when it comes to performance, but I can't help but notice.
Can anyone thing of an uglier cartridge than the 8x56R?
