hey guys thanks for all the info on the 257 but out of that i did decide to move up but will the ballistic tip destryo all usable meat int he animal or will the barnes be good i wanan put te animal down when i pull te trigger

u can get one off te wetherby site for 586 comes out to aobut 600 mky dad jsut got one its got a 24" barrel the only think i dont really like about it

i have a remington 870 express i liek it for a "work horse gun" but i want something new and more classie for my shoots. i have a browning A 5 made in beligim but i want something new that gun shoots great i am considering the browning gold any info?

whats the sp 10?

i have a remington 870 3 1/2 and love it but i shoot compoticion every sunday and i need a new semi for clays but i would alost liek a gun i cna get used to and take dove phesent and goose int he winter.

out my my 300 wby i shoot hornady 150 grain interbond bullets they group good adn dont desert as much as the other ones but i alsot hand load 165 grain nosiler bullets.. good luck and have fun

what is the diffrenct in the barrnes x and the ballistic tips?

does anyone know what type of bullet the 257 wby mag 115grain ballistic tip is? i can not find out who makes the bullet barns spere no idea anyone know?

I am in the market for a new 12 ga shot gun. but i am havin a hard time picking bewteen the bennelli and the browning gold i want a semi auto anyone have any opinions

Ok thanks guys thats a big help now i might have a chance to get to take a hunt out there sure hope so lol

have u tried the sniper broad heads they are mecanical and provin to shoot most like a feild tip well they are even shaped liek on 1 5/8'' cutting diamiter they work very well for me and you get a lot more pass threws with them from my expericence. but thats only my 2 cents so good luck i shoot a reflex 63lb pull with easton carbon arrows with 100 grain broad head works well for me.

25-06, I have a winchester 25-06 i also used the rederal 100 grain nosiler bullets the do desrtoy my dad also has a rembington 25-06 and he used 117grainboat tail soft point made by hornady they group very well in both out guns. and i killed my buck with it last year ranged at 386 yards one shot behind the shoulder and her ran ten yards and fell over his self. i have tryed every brand of 25-06 bullets and the hornady 117 btsp are by far my choice but i change over in summer to 75 grain hornady sst for ground hogs but for deer 117 grain btsp

I have jsut joined this site and next year i am plaing on takin my dad out on a mule deer elk hunt.... but i noticed that all of u guys are taliin aobut drawing tags..? around here we jsut go to the store buy a liscene and it comes with a buck and no doe tags but u can buy them for an extra ten bucks a peice.. up to 36 of them.. what will i have to do to get a hunt out there with a guide. or do ih ave to put in to get drawn for a tag

thanks Ernesto C. lol i dough i will get rid of this gun i am very fond of it. it is not a regular 257 wby mag it is a ruger m77 mark 11. originaly a 25-06 i have many gun smith freinds and some of them worked on it converting it to me they did the head spaceing and worke dont he bolt the gun shoots ver y well if you are interested in sometihng liekthat i would recomend it. thsi is the second gun i have had converd i had a 30-06 converted to a 240 wby mag used same bolt and all just got a new barrel and is shoots great to.. i talked to a guy that has a 257 wby he recomended 100 grain out of the 257 for whitetail deer the deer up here are about average going about a large mature buck is going about 200-230 and does aobut 145 160 lbs...i have a 243 and i would shoot them with 100 grain bulelt and they would run off i dropped to 87 and the drop inth ere tracks thats why i was tryin it same thing in my 25-06 so the 100 grain will stablize in the barrel better than the 87 is that what u were saying?,,,,, the barrel has 1:12 twist. im selling the 257 wby but i do have a 300 wby vangard with a murcurey supresor in it i paid 400 for it but the local gunshop offered me 1100 i think im gonan get rid of that one. jstu menching if your intrested.
