I had a .257 Bob, bought it more than 20 years ago. Grew up reading stories about what a great cartridge it was. Walked into a gun store and the lovely little Browning A-Bolt was on clearance so it went home with me. It sat in the safe forever because I learned it was built on a Short Action so I built myself another on a SR Mexican 98. Before I could het that one stocked I discovered the 6,5x55. It does everything the Bob does and more. Sold the A-Bolt but still have the Mexican barreled action. It'll probably be another twenty years til I stock it. Nothing wrong with it, it's just redundant.
