oh to be sure I wouldn't use the .257 for anything that large. but for any North American game? Certainly it's more than adequate at extended ranges on virtually anything in the lower 48.
It's right around .270 win by the numbers. A little faster, little flatter. And admittedly, probably a difference I will never notice in the field.
My choice was more about getting something a little different, and being an admirer of Roy and it was his personal favorite.
Had I not gone with the Wby chambering, I would have gotten a .308 win, which is just another personal favorite of mine.
