yes i will use my 257 Weatherby Mag. when i get in the stand opening mourning looking for a nice whitetail buck but after a few days i will bring out my new to me rifle with my handloads 256 Newton and i plan on shooting a doe with this rifle ! this old rifle 256 Newton is a very neat old bolt action made back around 1920 vintage ? and as Mule Deer explained to me about this cartridge its a 6.5 bullet with a barrel bore diameter is . 256 and that`s how Newton decided the name, same thing as his 300 Newton it is really .308 bore diameter. so what would we do without Mule Deer`s help ! ? thanks again,Pete53
