I found this great article by Charlie Haley on the 9x57 Mauser.

  Just keep in mind that the "rimmed" versions of these old cartridges aren't loaded to as high of pressures that the "rimless" versions...  And that = a bit less velocities.

  I would think for cheap shooting, .357 mag. bullets would work well in a 9x57...

In researching the 9x57R I am very impressed with it for a hog cartridge, interestingly the 9x57r drilling has a hog engraved on it..  ;D

  I don't think a German Drilling will have a "hog" on it...  It has a "boar"!
