Ahh, talking too many cartridges..It will for the 257 Roberts he was discussing. I'd suggest you look at some dimensional drawings
For a Bob just neck up 6 rem brass, or is that not available either?

No mention of the .257 STW yet? I had a custom rig built on a Browning model 1885 High-wall and it was a great powder burner. IIRC it could push a Barnes 100 gr TSX about 3900 fps. That was out of a 26 inch barrel (1:10 twist) and almost a hundred grains of US869. It was a screamer.

I did not record the number of shots, but it had about 300 rounds downrange when I sold it. At that point there was no sign of frosting or erosion in the throat. I never let the barrel get really hot, took my time between shots at the range, etc. I am shooting a 6 x 62 Freres right now as a fun gun, and it is similar in terms of taking it somewhat easy so as to leave the rifling IN the barrel!

Any of my guns you don’t plan on nabbing?
I don't need your 22 rimfire as that would just duplicate what I have, and your shotguns are all wrong sided but otherwise .........................................Any of my guns you don’t plan on nabbing?
