I had a 6/284... pretty much the same capacity as a 240 Roy... I couldn't get them running any faster than 4100... diminishing returns man.

Old Remington BDL-V in 6mm Rem. with the 24" heavy pipe... back when big Green put some love in'em. It's the most accurate factory rifle I've ever owned... she's got about 3500 rounds down here now... and still going strong.

If elk was also on the menu then I'd rather have a 300, not that I would really feel under gunned hunting elk with a 257 wby. If the rifles main purpose is going to be deer then I'd go .257. I have enough rifles dedicated to deer, elk, or both that anymore I by a rifle in a new cambering just becuse I want to play with the rifle/cartridge. I put a Rem 700 classic in 257 wby on layaway at Cabelas Sun.

Pard has a LSS 257, shoots really good! That layaway is dangerous, I have a 300 Roy, and 240 both Ultra Lightweights on the layaway plan right now. Don't know about you Jamie, but its a HELLAVA lot easier to sneak em by the old lady that way!! grin..

Josh, thats funny. I dont know if I ever told you the how,why I messed up on that address. For purchases over $100 that are comeing through the mail, I use a pards address so my wife wont see it. My pard told his wife that the reason I have stuff sent to thier house is becuse she is home all day to recive mail, cant go leaving expensive gear on the front steps. I've been doing this for years and until that scope I bought from you, it was working flawlessly.
