Title: Winchester mod.70 featherweight .257 roberts
Post by: danderson on September 30, 2011, 07:20:58 AM
I have a .257 roberts in mint condition, got it 25 years ago and havent shot 100 rounds thru it , its a sweet rifle with a walnut stock, Im not sure if its got enough knock down power for deer hunting so I dont use it at all, my son uses a 243 and I use a 270 if rifle hunting, Im thinking about selling or trading it, I dont do much varmit hunting and am trying to decide if this rifle is one I want to keep.

It's got enough juice for deer.  Cartridges are spendy, but such is life.
PM me if you really want to sell.

Are you selling it or asking if it has enough juice for deer?
It's plenty gun for deer.
If you're trying to sell it put it in the classifieds. Not here!

I trying to decide if its worth keeping, it sounds like from the comments made that its plenty good for deer hunting, I just havent used it in years and might just have to dust it off.

Trust me, it's worth keeping. I have a model 70 featherweight in .270, the first rifle my Dad bought me back in 1982. I will never get rid of it.
