Dang............this is going to tempt me.
I have a Belgian FN Small Ring I was about to make a 257 Roberts on, as a spec gun. 257s are easy to sell. But the idea of a 9X57 is just too cool. Much harder to sell because there are a heck of a lot more deer hunters around then moose hunters (or deer hunters who just like moose rifles)
I do have a good .358 blank with a 1-12" twist.

Maybe I'll make a take down with 2 barrels, a 257 AND a 9X57.
Or a 6.5X55 and 9X57.
Or even a 7X57 and 9X57.


This could be a sweet combo gun.

I am so far behind right now I think I''m first, but this gun has enough merit that I may just have to make it.
