| Gibbs .256 Magnum
Introduced in 1913 the 256 Gibbs, or Gibbs 256 Magnum is the smallest of the Gibbs series used in the Mauser style rifle. The cartridge had a muzzle velocity of 3,000 FPS with a 145 grain soft point bullet, which wasn’t too shabby for 1913. It was used on small to medium game, out to 500 yards. These cartridges have a hard, dark, purplish coated projectile, that has partially worn off with the time that has passed since they were produced. |
