Anybody have a rifle cartridge that you are infatuated with for no real reason? For me it’s the 257 Weatherby Magnum. I guess I’ll always have a rifle of some flavor chambered in the 257 Roy, but I can’t really explain why. My 300 PRC is better suited for long range hunting. My various 6.5s, 308s and 7mm-08s are all better suited for hunting at more traditional ranges. The 257 WM eats barrels, is expensive to shoot and can be pretty fussy about ammo. The .25 cal bullets don’t buck wind particularly well. There’s just nothing about that screams, “Hey! Pick me as your favorite!” But, I love it all the same. I like non-standard cartridges and to me, that 257 Weatherby Magnum is about as non-standard as it gets. Anybody else have a cartridge like that?
