[QUOTE="cjhunts_alot, post: 1774004, member: 92711"] No reason not to get a 257wby for the 131 blackjack. Mines a 1:7 twist 26" McGowan Howage i put together myself. It's got a saami chamber and I'm loading them at 3.48". That puts the base of the bullet at the neck/shoulder junction, and there's still plenty of bullet in the neck of the cartridge. I have no idea how far I'm off the lands, but it's shooting just fine. I used 117 Sierra Gameking load data to start with and it seems to work just fine. [ATTACH=full]161878[/ATTACH] Yes, I use old priority boxes for targets... They're free and I have a billion of them. [/QUOTE]
