I have a 98 built in Argentina chambered in 7x57. It was built about the turn of the century. Shoots very well and is devastating out to about 700 yards with a 150 grain boat tail. Bought it off some guy 30 years ago for $40. Keep thinking about putting a scope on it but never quite get around to it. It is my back-up aw$hit weapon. Rugged and very reliable. The ladder sight is dead on but in meters so you have to remember that.

I have a ‘95 Chilean in the same caliber, very accurate but the metric sight does take some getting use to!
