257 Weatherby magnum, with an Element helix 6-24x50. Very capable rig that absolutely flattens Sika and pigs!

Beautiful gun mate. Would love a 257 one day
Back from the gunsmith yesterday
My 2nd 38-50 rolling block
Im really enjoying this caliber for long range bpcr shooting
A lot less recoil than the 40’s and 45’s but still shoot extremely well right out to 750 and beyond
My dad and I fight over the 38 as my 45/70 while accurate as it boots like a mule with the 550gn pills
So now we have a 38 each and the 45 will only get used beyond 800 where it’s needed
This has been my dream rifle in the making for awhile now, finished off the load development and sighted it in today after mounting the VX6. Super happy with the results, shots were taken at 100 yards from bi-pod as I wanted to sight it in as it would be shot in the field. Just want to add how impressed I am with the T-MOA reticle in the Leupold. Really allows for precise aiming.
Tidy older Ruger M77 in classic 7x57 Mauser (or .257 Rigby if you prefer).
Delighted to have it in the collection!
