[QUOTE="bengineer, post: 2203144, member: 36951"] Regarding cup and core from the 257: i use the 100 game king, a non-bonded cup and core, in 25-06 for marmots/rock chucks because of its fragility and frangibility. I realize this may be the softest 100gr .25 bullet and may not represent all cup and cores, but the 257 is several hundred fps faster than the ‘06. Feel free to use a little harder bullet if you intend to shoot through a shoulder or, heaven forbid, a hip. As i love speed goat meat, I always tend toward a meat saver shot, whether facing me or broadside. Expect meat loss with the faster, bruising rounds, regardless of bullet construction, but harder bullets seem to bruise less meat in my experiences. [/QUOTE]
