I fought with myself for weeks over the 243 or 257 Roberts at the local gun store. Already had a 243, and the shop owner told me he really liked the 257 it simply had a little more wallop than the 243, and the 257 had the engraved floor plate, so I got that one.
You'll love it! Very sweet gun in numerous respects. If you want a little more gloss to the finish when you get it, get some cheap furniture polish, the kind that does leave a waxy buildup, hand rub it until all of the pores in the wood disappear, then run over it with a silicone gun wipe. Keeps the moisture out, and gives it just the right amount of really shiny.
