Hey PPguns I don't think we are going to be poor in quality .257 bullets anymore. Take for instance the BJ131. Here you have the bullet before the barrel story. These guys made a single bullet that in turn got so many companies to spend big dollars on tooling so that we could shoot that bullet. I can not wait to see what the future holds for the quarter bore. Barney Lawton made the barrel on my 257wby himself, before he died he told me he always thought the 257 would one day be the best. He explained to me how the 257 has everything like equal land and groove areas and that it makes the best barrel size he could build. I will have this one forever. I wonder what is going to be the heaviest and highest bc 25 bullet that works in a 7 twist 257roy. I think the 277 is going to do the same. We need the faster twist barrels anyway with the lead free bullets to equal weight of lead core bullets, do bring them on. Future looks bright. Got my first order for a 7 twist 25creed. You guys know I'm going to build 2 so I can have a shop rifle. Of course rifle 2 will be very much the same specs as I use in my own rifles. Wonder if the wife will miss it too often.
