yes and no.
probably not done in NZ. I would suggest someone with a little bit more coin wanting the best performance out of the round and maybe either having the rifle or getting a buggered one (maybe not) and paying to get it re-barreled the same as 90% of the SMLE's getting done.
Then they could load it another 200fps on basically the same as the 257 rob, or the 270 Winchester whichever one you looked at.
Probably having the rifle was the key otherwise you would just buy a 270 or 257. Mind you maybe not a lot around
