[QUOTE="rodger_taylor, post: 12991, member: 3236"] I have a Weatherby .257 on a springfield action. Love it. I have fired over 2000 rounds through it and have had no trouble. I've found the 100 and 115 gr. bullets seem to be the best for long range as well as sustained knock down power. I have toyed with the idea of making a .257 out of a .300 Ultra. There are a couple of companies making reamers as well as dies for this combination. I own a .257, .300 AI,.378 weatherby, 270 WSM, 7MM remington as well as a .25-06. I have taken large mule deer as well as mid sized elk with the .257 Weatherby. Little kick for the punch and good flat shooting at shots over 400 yards. Let me know what you decide to do because I am still toying with the idea of making a rifle with a larger case that is a .257 caliber bullet. [/QUOTE]
