I keep playing with the idea of ordering a .256 Win Mag

Well worth it. Great little shorter range varmint cartridge. I have the Contender barrel and a Marlin Model 57 and I used to have a Martini Cadet in .256. A delightful cartridge to load and shoot if you are careful. 75 grain hollowpoints seem to be the best bullet since the 60 grain HPs that were originally loaded as factory are no longer available. I don't like the 60 grain flat points much.
