I'm looking for others who just adore the .257 Roberts. I have one that has been in the family since 1962. Since then 21 people have taken thier first deer with it. It seems to provide more slap than the .243Win, while allowing the use of 120gr Noslers as a viable option for a light-kicking elk rifle. It's real home has been on deer though, and it may be THE perfect marriage of caliber-to-quarry.
Also, if you do not handload, and would like some top notch custom ammo for your .257 Roberts at a fair price ($14-$16 per box) I will post it on this thread at a later date. I gotta go home and locate this gentlemans card first. His name is Dick Brown, and he assembled the first ammo my old Rem 722 ever made a one hole group with!
