.257 Wby. Mag.

Roy Weatherby’s personal favorite. Travels 3,825 fps (87 grain bullet), giving you the flattest trajectory of any .25 caliber rifle in the world. Suitable for long-range varmint shooting but ideal for big game hunting (depending upon bullet weight).

Also available in Vanguard® Series 2 models: Synthetic, Synthetic Package, Stainless Synthetic, Sporter, Deluxe, Range Certified and Back Country.

20 cartridges per box.
