[QUOTE=".300 Dakota, post: 2546617, member: 106514"] I just ordered some .257 cal Nosler Partition "factory overruns". Fancy term for blems. When I get them, I'll check closely for aberrations, but the only thing I can see is that they have a cannelure. Nosler Partitions DON'T have cannelures... Well they do, too. The 170 grain .30 cal designed for .30-.30 does. There are probably more. 120 grain .257 caliber have never that I know of. These are the 120 grainer spitzers, so that's probably the issue. Paid 56 cents each, so they didn't give them away, but much less than they would normally have run. I have a 9 twist Roberts that I'm building, which should make good use of these. Never been crazy about the cannelure, but I've never had it seem to affect accuraacy or hurt that it's there. It will normally just stick up above the mouth a bit. The chamber in this barrel may be short, though, and it may serve its purpose. Will have to see when I get the barrel back from Marty at Twisted Barrel. He was working on it last week. [/QUOTE]
