The .257 is a great deer and antelope rifle. I am sure somebody will report killing elk or bear with one, but that is stretching it.

Hornetguy describes it pretty well.

There is one problem.
Rifles and ammunition are not common, the "Bob" has been superceded by newer guns and cartridges. They are not necessarily better, just newer.

(I looked on Midway, there is more selection of ammo than I expected. Maybe it is making a comeback.)
