I have three .257Rs and two 6.5CMs. Love both chamberings. Nostalgia (and proven effectiveness) says to go with Ned Robert's baby. Cutting edge (and proven effectiveness) say to go with Dave Emery's baby. Decisions. Nothing against the .243 but, as a dyed-in-the-wool .25 cal. fan(atic), I have zero interest. And, the Bob and CM are both effective on game up to and including elk. Feel about the same. My only quarter bore is a .240 Wby in an HS Precision rifle with Hunter's Edge stock. It loves 100 gr. NPT's. I tried 105's, no dice. I wish it was 8 twist instead of 10 twist, but half MOA with 100 gr. Partitions is good enough. I have the mentioned chamberings, except 7.x57, which I had but traded. Not a bad choice in the mix. RIght now, I'm working with heavier bullets in the CM, have 143 and 147 ELD's. DF
