Sure was neat reading the magazine! I liked the announcement of the 358 Norma.

Fascinating article on a short lived cartridge. 160 grain .257-anyone look up the S.D. on this one? .32 or thereabouts maybe? Kind of outWeatherbyed Weatherby.
I also saw an article in the issue on the .22 JGR, a .32 necked down to .22.
Finally - think it's too late to order 1911's for .$39.75 or 1917's for $29.75? Maybe stock up on Great Westerns?
Thanks for posting this.

The 257 Condor is actually listed on QL. About 6gr smaller than the 257 Wby. QL also lists a Condor Improved that is basically the same as the Wby. No listing for a 160gr bullet that I can find. coffee


As usual just my $.02

There is one such gun listed on gunbroker:

Wrong forum but interesting reading indeed. I wonder if you could cut off the locking lugs from the .257 Condor and fire it while holding the bolt forward with your thumb? Worked with the .22JGR! Wink
