Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles 257 ROBERTS vs.308 WIN for whitetail only hunting

You make these posts as though you-yourself are longing for male-feminine bonding. I am not saying you are, but you certainly seem preoccupied with it.

FWIW, the 308 is just better overall.

We need to get this thing settled - forget the .257 RBTS and the .308 WIN - I learned right here on the Campfire (from Ingwe) that the only round that really rates is the .270 WIN.

Now who's stirring it?

Get a .30-06 and be done with it. Nobody will wonder about your orientation then.

.257 Roberts feminine? gay bullets? WTF is wrong with you now Swampy, did you run out of your own bathwater to drink, or are partaking of someone elses these days? Have you and your bathtub literati buddies run out of things to talk about so you decide to come over and piss on someone elses parade and BTW have you ever considered using non-gender or lifestlye based adjectives, or are you really that clueless, offensive, and ignorant?
Get a life.
JMHO

Are you gonna cry?

The Roberts can take you far and fast in hunting. For deer only, you can be set for the rest of your years. Load some 100gr Horn Interlocks, Partitions or even TTSX's and never look back.

Have both and my .257 is still a deer virgin, dammit!

Keep trying to change that but the elk come first and the Bob doesn't get carried until one is down. Works great on antelope, though.

I've noticed in this and other threads that the 100 gr bullets seem to be favored over the 117s or 115 partitions. Are there clear advantages to using the 100?

Thanks,
Dave

I wouldn't think there's much difference. 117's shoot better in my Bob so that's what I load.

Swampturd is obviously trolling.

Anybody that thinks there's alot of difference between a 117 at 2900fps(Roberts) and a 140 at 2950(270 Win) is a dumbass.

And anybody that doesn't think the 270 Winchester is the perfect deer round is an even bigger dumbass......grin

The .270 Winchester is fine. It doesn't need gay expensive mono-metal bullets to do the job and you can actually walk into a store and buy ammo for $14.95 a box. In the middle of nowhere ordering ammo online and getting it delivered in time to hunt the next morning is tricky.

Sammo.....its just like my hunting buddy always says...

" You can't drink all day if you don't start in the morning...."


You have obviously started.....

I was hoping you'd see that one Tom!


laughin'

You're a brave man, to hunt with Adair...

What's considered the morning exactly?....

Well, if anyone knows gay, it would be you.

115 NBTs have worked fine in my Roberts. I didn't even have to gay it up with a TSX.

swamp turkey

another name for a hoodrat or dungeon monkey.......or an old women that lays around the neighborhood waiting for sex and is usually on crack.....

Congrats again Swampy. You just keep throwing that stink bait out there and reel in the suckers. Too funny. You sure have a target rich environment here. Lot's of slow studies out there. Carry on.

Who waits til the day before to "order" bullets?..and in the middle of nowhere? how you do that ? I think we have our answer already.. it would be you. Use your vast knowledge you spew here on the fire and LOAD your own and/or BUY some AHEAD of time...then learn to shoot. Apparently your pills have kicked in cause you just let everyone see you trip over your own gay tongue. dumbass

Yep, those Hornady Interlock bullets sure are expensive...
