257 roberts is indeed a great cartridge for beginners and women. Soft recoil and little bark. Very effective and 117-120 grain bullets available. If you reload you can always load the 25 o6 down. Or use remingtons low recoil ammo. Rem does make a 257 roberts round as does hornady and winchester also. I love the round and I would bet that you would get more on a resale of a 257 rbts over the 25-06, you would just have to find someone that was looking for one. And we are out there!
