lancetkenyon Report post Posted July 18, 2016 Harley, Same bolt face between .257 Wby and .264WM, right? You can do a .264WM since you would have to rebarrel and chamber anyway. Gives you a bit of a heavier bullet option. .264 130/140/160gr. Vs. .257 115/117/120gr. I sure wish Berger would come out with a .257" 130gr. Put 1:9" twist .257 bore and those would rock!

Hoss50 Report post Posted July 18, 2016 Lance, They are the same bolt face. In fact I even use .264 win mag brass or 7mm Rem Mag brass to make my .257 Weatherby brass since I am too cheap to buy real weatherby brass for my .257. I do wish they would do a 130gr .257 caliber HVLD. My rifle loves the 115gr. and it would be nice to get a little more BC and bullet weight out of the quarter bore. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

firstcoueswas80 Report post Posted July 20, 2016 So far I like it. The real test will be shooting from field positions as gas goes everywhere! It kicks less then my 257 wby. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
