Ahh, the internet..... The only place individuals like Savage 99 can become an expert on the 257 Roberts without ever owning or firing one. After nearly 40 years of shooting and hunting with at least a half-dozen different 257's, my conclusions about this great cartridge are the direct opposite of his on all counts.
His conclusions about the 257 seem to parallel the same logic Lee J. Hoots used with the .270 not being enough cartridge for a mule deer..... only Hoots shot a 270 before spewing....
