Just Lucky,

I have not shot this rifle very much, less than 200 rounds in 22 years, but did shoot it at 500 yards one time from an improvised rest and clanged a steel torso target with 5 out of shots, using a guestimated holdover. I had set up the target for a different rifle, but decided to try the .257 to see how it would do and it pleasantly surprised me.

Someone needing a main gun for every thing except bear, moose, elk maybe would be very pleased with a 257. It would be a gun/caliber that would start a conversation around any hunting campfire.

The wood is prettier than I need, but it is tempting!

How is this still here? If I didn't already have Bob's in a 722 and a 77RL I'd be all over this.

You can’t be a true rifle looney if you haven’t at least danced with the Roberts. It’s a solid rifle and even with the 22” barrel I was able to reach 3200fps with the 100-grain Nosler BT with excellent accuracy. Nothing in Central Ohio to use it on unfortunately. I have better groundhog rifles.

This is built on Ruger’s long action.
