[QUOTE="Freebore, post: 161541, member: 873"] [b]257 Weatherby[/b] Brockel, I shoot the .257 Weatherby and both of my rifles are Weatherby's. The 115 ballistic tip is what I use and have had excellent results both on game and target with this bullet using H-1000 powder w/3.305 COL. I have not tried the Berger bcause of the performance of the ballistic tip is so good for me. I've taken antelope, mule deer and caribou with that bullet. The big caribou (see page 9 of the '07 Wthrby catalog ) I shot was at 335 yards quartering to slightly, broke both shoulders, spine and found the jacket under the offside hide, he never moved. This was the heaviest bone I have put the bullet to. All other game was double lunged and they maybe took a step or two, those bullets all exited. That said I would be interested if someone is shooting the 115 berger in the Weatherby freebored chamber dimensions using the magazine. [/QUOTE]
