The 257 is just plain awesome. Every time I shoot it I smile. Have not reloaded for it yet. 2 inch groups at 300 yards off bags with factory.
Sheep though…that means anchoring them in some situations, and g-bears. Both those warrant a 7 or 30 imo. But if you are ok going with a smaller gun, get the bee.
The whole "clicker" thing depends on the brass, the sizing die, and the chamber, and to some extent the pressure that you load to. I have worked with a few 6.5 PRC rifles, and haven't witnessed it yet.
