It has a handsome stock. The figure is superb. The barrel looks like SS and a little heavy.
To me the 257R would be a coyote gun. Like my other game chambers it has too much bullet for chucks and I can shoot more gun at game. I am going hunting in an hour or so. My latest pet is a custom in 300 Win. Mag. Now that's really too much gun for here. Nice rifle however. Kind of wish it were a 257 R. in a way. On the other hand it does have more range.
I looked for factory ammo and all that WW listed was the 117gr?
Its just another cartridge that did not catch on. Otherwise it's the favorite of some and that's good.
