Basic 357 case necked down to .25. Quite a bit hotter than the old .25-20. Actually, Ruger made a single shot pistol chambered in .256. Called it the Hawkeye, I believe.
neat.
I never heard of it either so googled it.
Not what i thought at all.

Well the gun shop in Topeka was going outta business sadly and the owner gave be a bunch of books and old American Rifleman mags from the 70's so I kinda want to pass the buck and bought some things I didn't really need but was interested in. This brass was some of it I got. I am kicking myself for not buying all of his Weatherby ammo and old 244 Remington Herters ammo but I was semi in a hurry and headed to Omaha.
Dang I'd been all over the 244 ammo. I still have a few mixed in with my 6mm brass but probably not a box full.
Blue Shed gun shop in Topeka has at least 3 boxes. They have a website but not sure if they are still open this week or permanently closed by now but maybe give them a call and see if they can part with the ammo and send it and or if you were headed that way.
I would give my left leg for those. I just bought a 256 Marlin model 62 and been trying to find factory brass. I have dies and some bullets, but no brass. In the process of trying to make some out of 357 and it is a heartache. Oak
Just came across 80 rounds of 256 Win Mag, 60 gr hollow points and one old Winchester X box.
Oak, if you're still looking, hit me up.
