[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1158543, member: 12995"] I have been saying this for years. When I asked Berger this same question, they said it was on their "to-do" list. But that could mean it could be this year, 5+ years, or we may never see one. I would prefer a .257 130 Hybrid, personally, since their Hybrid design has better BC, but still retains exceptional hunting properties, and it would be ideal for my .25-06 AI for deer hunting. I wouldn't mind running a 1:8 twist Bartlein. :D The .257 and 8mm calibers seem to have been left behind. Not really sure why, and the only excuse is the factory twist rate, but with how advanced barrel making technology has come in the last decade, there should be no more excuses. A new heavy high-BC .25 and 8mm offering would revive a lot of calibers that have been dwindling in popularity for a while now. [/QUOTE]
