I think you will be pleased with the results sir, just send in the barreled action (they will tell you how/where to send it) to 300 Below. About a month or less later, back in your sweaty, loving hands my friend! ha Good luck to you Pard. My gun savvy Uncle who passed when I was 16, always told me the .257 Roberts was "perfect". ha Being a Looney, I have only owned a few, had one reamed to the Ackley and then had to go on and experiment with the 25-06, 257 wby. I never ,ever , killed anything with them I could not have with my very first 257 Bob! Ain't it great? lol
