[QUOTE="sable tireur, post: 2750131, member: 27307"] [IMG]https://loaddata.com/images/articles/image10.jpg[/IMG] [I]Examples of .25-caliber cartridges include (left to right): the .250 Savage, .257 Roberts, .25-06 Remington and the .257 Weatherby Magnum.[/I] This will depend on the bullets selected for the .257 AI since it is based on the 7x57 Mauser case. Shorter, lighter bullets can be used in the short action while the longer, heavier bullets either protrude deeply into the case or seated out, become too long for the magazine. This is like trying to shoe horn your size 11 foot into a size 10 boot...:( I used the .250 Savage AI in short actions with the heaviest bullets seated out, still fit that magazine properly. Enjoy! :) [/QUOTE]
