[QUOTE="std7mag, post: 2851335, member: 125590"] I think Ruger released a 77 in 257 Roberts about 5 years ago. Special run of them. Lipsey's will have a run of Ruger #1s in 257 Roberts every now & then. Thought I remembered Winchester having a Model 70 in 257 Roberts a few years back also. Shame really that the interest is declining in the Roberts. It is truly a good do it all cartridge. 75gr VMAX, Sierra HP for small varmints. 90gr BlitzKings for coyotes out to 400+ yards. 115gr Berger VLD, and Nosler Ballistic Tips bring deer to a stop like nobody's business. Barrel a 257 Roberts up with a 1:7.5 twist and it has enough volume to get the new heavy, high BC bullets out there. [/QUOTE]
