[QUOTE="RT2506, post: 537733, member: 10178"] I don't have a 257 Roy but I really like the Accubond bullets for your stated reason of close through long range. I am using the 130 Accubond in my 264 Win mag for the same reasons and in the past two seasons I have taken 5 WT deer from 80 to 250 yards and it has performed perfectly. I only recovered one bullet shot into a nice buck at 111 yards that was almost facing me. Bullet entered left edge of front shoulder smashing the scapula then made soup out of the vitals and was found in the right ham when cutting up the meat. Bullet weight was 87 grs. It left the muzzle at an average of 3350 fps and had to still be doing at least 3100 fps on impact. That is what I call a good bullet. I do shoot the 117 Sierra Pro Hunter in my 25-06 at 3000 fps with bug hole accuracy and it is wicked in the killing department to a touch over 500 yards so far. :D My hunting buddy used to have a 257 Roy and he shot the 117 Sierra with H-870 which they don't make anymore but it was very accurate and fast. I have read on another forum, I think it was the Nosler forum, about a fellow using Retumbo and the 110 Accubond with great success. May want to take a look over there. Good luck and good hunting.
