257 Weatherby Bullet Options

[GSP814]

My Remington LSS shoots the Weatherby factory 110 Nosler Accubond into dime sized groups. I'll will have to Lab Radar it for speed.

Rl22 loses so much speed when it gets cold out. If you don't tune in the cold your rifle will be out of tune. I stopped using it because of how temp sensitive it is. It's a shame because 257wbys love rl22. I use 7828 in mine now and it's done great. Going to try some rl23 and 26 and see how it does.
Shep

I went through the cold issues with RL50 in my 416 Barrett. Set it to run 3150fps all summer long. Then the colder weather sets in and my guns useless. Went with V.20n29 all the cold issues went away and groups came back She's now good for any type of weather

Its results like this that made me shoot them in the head or neck.I want the meat...I'm not a Horn Hunter.

Living with my only gun for years,a 22 hornet makes headshots a real nessessity and I am sure it never had 1000 foot/pounds of energy but killed like it did!

I had a 28" 1:10" .25-06AI for about 11 or 12 years. Killed a bunch of mulies and my only Coues with it.
100 SMK @ 3590, 100TTSX @ 3600+, or 115 Berger HVLD @ 3450. Nothing ever took more than 20 yards on a mad dash to die. Most dropped at the shot. From about 80 yards to 488.
Laser beam flat. Scalpel accurate.

OMG! After 4 years, you should be due for a re-barrel/re-chamber.

I shot that barrel out in about 12 years. But it was strictly a hunting rifle. About 800 rounds and it was toast.

 

[Phil Rizzo]

It did some toasting before it toasted…mine was:
57.0 H4831
Fed 215m
110 Nos Accubond

3410-3420fps there.

This just a fireforming load?

Looks like he was using brass that is "formed".

No. 57.0gr of RL22 was not a fire forming load pushing a 115 HVLD @ 3450.
