Thread: Single Shot Rifles - Blaser & Merkel

I've got a Merkel K3 in 7x57R, with a 3-9x42 Kahles in Rectnagel qr mounts. The k3 has the "alloy" reciever, the k4 the steel reciever and hexagonal barrel. The k3 reciever is not cheap, light flimsy etc. Its a good solid alloy. ON my first reloading session it put 4 out of 5 in the same hole. I pulled the 5 shot as i filled my pants. 7x57r brass is pretty easy to find. I use geco , rws and privi. Weight is 2.8 kg scoped so even a 7x57 is pretty lively in the hands off a bench.
