The 257 ______ prototypes will be here in about 2 weeks!
Although this brass already has a prototype name designation, 257 Black Magic, 257 Vegas, 257 STAG, 257 JACKPOT, and others have stuck in my mind pretty well.
When we start Load Dev and publishing this stuff we will be as detailed as possible and produce a PDF for the cartridge with different powders - that is to say we will be much more exhaustive with this Load Dev and Load Data than what we publish for cartridges with sister calibers like 6/6.5 creed and x47.
The case capacity and geometry is in a sort of void between many useful SA cartridges and LA cartridges so we want to provide as much data as possible.
I attached the 257 WBY MAG case head as well - who didn't have a cartridge they wished they had growing up? Hopefully in the coming years 257 ______ will have that effect on some young and old shooters!

Nah, I was only joking. But it would be funny to watch the haters have a meltdown.
