willy,
im probably going to have a third mark 5 257 in the safe by the end of the year. i would not get the vanguard though, go mark 5 or like stubblejumper said a custom pipe on a 'friendly' action.
have you ever shot a weatherby???, if not, i would be more than happy to let you crack off a few.

the 270wsm is also a "cartridge-of-interest" to me as well/. honestly i dont think you can go wrong with either. its just which action to put it in.
dont undersestimate the performance of a 257 caliber 100grain projectile going 3500fps
bang flop, bangflop....is a sound youll get used too!
it is not a meat hunting gun,
