What is wrong with the standard .257 Weatherby?
Maybe belts aren't cool anymore. I shoot belted cases on a pushfeed. That's out there!  .

Hondo64d,
If you are still here and want the info, I have it. While looking for something on BING this thread came up. I took the 9.3X64 and necked it to 6.5. Then the body taper was taken out and Weatherby radii used for looks. Someone told me it looks like a .257 Wea without the belt.
Now back to BING.

Thanks Ringman. I've since lost interest and moved in other directions.

Its already been taken care of for you. Just call Lazzeroni Arms in Tucson, Arizona and ask about his long beltless .257 caliber magnum called the "Scramjet". You can buy rifles or ammo or cases and dies.

6.5x68 case is a good starting point for lots of wildcats and hell for strong RWS brass available.

I built myself a 25 STW and it doesn't get any better for a Big Case 25
A Doe walks out of the woods today and says, that is the last time I'm going to do that for Two Bucks.

The Sherman would fall a bit short, but would be closer than any of the other std cases and make for a really unique rig.
