    ALLways glad to see a Roberts still in use. Mine got an antelope a few years back. Devastating quartering away heart shot at 155yds.
    .300mag wouldn't have made it dead any quicker. Awesome caliber, and sounds like a fabulous rifle, not to mention a more-than-adequate reloader. :>)

    Thank you! My dad also shoots a 257 Bob. His is a Winchester model 70. It's our families go to deer caliber.

    It is one of my favorites. I’ve got one built on a nazi Mauser action, a Ruger #1, and an Ackley improved 257 Roberts on a FN Supreme Mauser action. By far my favorite quarter bore.
