[QUOTE="snox801, post: 1293945, member: 54383"] If you are building from scratch I would do a 257 wby with a 26" to 28" barrel but do it in 1/8 or 1/7 twist. That opens you up to use high bc.25 cal rounds like hammer. My wby is a 10 twist as I left it up to the smith as it was my first build I use it for the exact distance you described. I am very tempted to rebarrel to a faster twist to use high bc bullets. Would really make he 257 shine [/QUOTE]
