Guys,
I'm still wading through the waist deep selection of rifle calibers and having tried a few now, I find myself having a definite preference for the smaller calibers. Those that will chamber in shorter actions and yet still have dual purpose deer and varmint capability find favor with me. To that end I have received advice on 2 in particular, the 257 Roberts and the 243 Winchester. Both seem like fine rounds in the 6mm class with little to separate them ballistically, so I'm looking for user experience on either, and also, if you were forced to do so, which way your choice would go between the 2 of them.
Regards,
Mike H
