Gun store owner I worked for had us (store staff) go to a Houston gun show to find him a .257 Rbts in Win M54 (forerunner to the M70).
We found 2. Bought the best looking one.
Wanted it for a Canadian moose hunt.
Hunt was a flop.
While packing out, guide stopped the pack train and told him, "There's a small bull over there!" About 250 yards away.
His rifle was packed away. Guide says, "Use mine."
The bull dropped at the shot.
"Nice rifle!" he said to outfitter. "What is it?"
Guide, ".257 Roberts!"
