[QUOTE="Hired Gun, post: 240821, member: 1290"] Somebody has to be a 257Wby fan. I am one. I have a 24" 25-06AI and it doesn't hold a candle to what my 26" 257Wby will do. I use it for varmints to with 75 grain V-Max's at 3950 and hunt deer with it using 100 grain Partitions at 3650 or 110 Accubonds at 3450. To 600 yards it is devistating on deer. I use the same modified Lee Collet die to neck size both the 257Wby and the 25-06AI. The 257 is way easier to load for and my original 100 brass are still going strong after 10 years. My front row of test mule brass are up to 20 firings and the primer pockets are getting noticably looser than when they were new. The belt is a non-issue. In my experience the 257Wby will put 200fps on anything the 25-06AI will do. Winchester brass has the greatest case capacity in 25-06 from what I have found. [/QUOTE]
