[QUOTE="freddiej, post: 1678281, member: 26227"] I have had two Weatherby rifles, 257 Weatherby, and 270 Weatherby. both shot extremely well with factory rounds so I bought them for a little while, then I had the bright idea to reload for them. this turned out to be where my real passion for long range accuracy came from. both would keep just about 0.800" to 0.900" groups with factory ammo. I tried reloading the 257 and got some really great results with nosler partitions and H-1000/H-4831. the same can be said for the 270. 120 grain for the 257 and 160 grain with the 270. I was keeping 1" at 200 to 250 yards with both rifles. I tried to crimp the rounds and it did me no good. the groups opened up to approximately 3" at 250 yards. I went back to not crimping and went back to sub-1/2 MOA. [/QUOTE]
