For deer, varminting, maybe elk and maybe a sheep or goat some day.. for an extra barrel on a single shot lightweight rifle. which would you choose and why? reloading myself, so ammo is not a problem. | ||

It would seem to me that it will be about as difficult (or easy) to find brass for either. So get the biggest one. | |||

Jameister the 7X65R is the more popular of the two. At one time I had owned a 9.3X74R in a number one. It was a very ordinary rifle but shot well. The way things are going for my 500 N.E. 3" project, I might just build another 9.3X74R though I would do things diff. I always wanted a 7X65R (since I like the 280) in one of those sweet Dakota arms singles. we live in the metro area ... maybe if I am free sometime we can shoot take care smallfry | |||

If you're determined to have a rimmed cartridge, I'd go with the 7X65R. Especially given the variety of game you've mentioned. As was noted, it's basically a rimmed 280. Living in the States, either one is most likely a handloading proposition and the 7X65 will be more flexible. What an elegant cartridge. I'd love to have a 7X65 some day. | |||

Can't you form 7x57R from .444 Marlin? | |||

Gentlemen The most popular is 7X65R in Europe soo why bother with a slower and less common round like the 7X57R. This would be my no1 choice in a single shooter for deer size game | ||
