One of us will be sure to have some to share.

One of the absolute joys of the community….

The HighRoad is my go reloading forum.
A great bunch of knowledgeable reloaders here.
Thank all of you for the help you guys given.

Bandit 67 offered some 257 brass and I found some 7x57 brass and I bought a set of dies. So we are in great shape.
Thank all of you guys for all of the great information. .
I will reform some of the 7x57 brass and get them reloaded and will reload the 257 Robert's brass from Bandit when it arrives.

I talked with my electrician and he is happier then a kid on Chrismas morning. .
He has never shot this handed down rifle from his grandfather.

Need a picture of the rifle you said on the phone it was a pump action, so sounds like a Remington 760/7600 and I haven't seen many in 257.

I have been forming 7x57 from .270 brass for 33 years.
Make .260 from .243 and 7-08.
Resize about every known belted mag to 7mmRemMag

keeps the sticky fingers away from ammo.

Always seemed like a Pennsylvania thing…seems like a “lot” of them when I lived there….

I called him and left a voice mail asking what model of rifle it's.

I'm glad I read through this thread. I don't load for 257 Roberts, but I discovered a new manual. I just purchased this manual (well the 2003 version), and it will arrive on Wednesday.

South central for me - Lancaster (albeit, I moved in 2009…). It seemed the Amish like the caliber and the action….

A brother lives down by Lancaster, Gordensville.

He has a pickup and does deliveries for a Amish store.
His wive does cab service for them as well.
Haven't talked to him in over fifteen years and probably never will over family issues.
