[QUOTE="7mmnut, post: 915954, member: 74900"] I have a 257 wm in a rem 700(sps,stainless) Dropped it in a HS precision stock(free floating barrel). Shooting 110 gr. accubonds at 3400 fps but wanting to pick up the pace a little. Just got in 2 boxes of 115 gr nos. partitions and noticed on different reloading sites data was for mark V actions only.. Which is finally getting me to my question if someone can help.. I've always heard rem 700 actions were stronger due to the 2 massive bolt lugs compared to the mark v with 9 small lugs with (on average) 5-6 baring the load. True or false? I would assume Remington took this in consideration when they chambered this round... Never cared too much for a weatherby but my remmy is a .25 incher at a 100 yrds. Also need some info on loading 115 gr nos. partitions with Norma MRP powder.. Norma's site goes from 110 to 117 gr. Will use 117 starting loads if no one here has used this combo.
