Jake,
Are you going to build a gun of the month too? My 257Bee will shoot the 120gr Partition into 3/4" groups going 3600fps(31" barrel).

Nope can't don't have a magnum action.

If I were to purchase a Weatherby; the .257 is what I'd get

Well written article.

The 257 WBY is a sweet cartridge, to be sure.

Since RL26 seems to be the flavor of the month :grin: I'll have to see what it could do in mine.

My fiber mark Mark V shoots the 110 AB at 3550 and does it under .6" at 100 yards.

Yes you do. Ain't nothin to open up the bolt face a smidge for a 257 Wby or any other .532" cartridge.... :grin:

All the Winchesters can be easily adjusted via a bolt stop adjustment as well.

I thought that was a pretty well written article on the ol' speedster...

Great cartridge way back when, and now. A fair bit more zip than my .25-06... In fact it's right up there with some claims for the .257 Roberts AI that I've seen.... :wink:

Good article on the 257 Wby.

No doubt the .257 weatherby has pizazz. I wouldn't mind building one up.

Now that's funny!

I couldn´t help to see what the .270WSM had to offer with the Norma Kalahari 120grain bullet. That too is a badass round. Very tempting to have a rifle made up in that caliber.

No Scotty there's too many awesome cartridges to chamber rather than ruin the action and open the bolt up.

It was actually my second. I have a 700 Classic in .300, that I've never shot. If I go according to plan, my next Weatherby will be a .340, in a Stainless M70 Classic. Maybe a .375, same platform.

Ironically, the only Weatherby rifle I have is a .223 Remington...
