[QUOTE="FEENIX, post: 3073280, member: 14204"] For many years, the go-to bullet weight in .25 cal was 100-115g in a 1:10" twist. Then came the 131 BJ and faster twist barrels, which sparked renewed interest in .25 cal. Today, we have 133/135 Bergers, 134 Hornady ELD-M, 120/130/145 Black Hole, and 135/140/163 Chinchagas (they can go up to 180). Plenty of bullet choices exist from <100g to 163g in lead and lead-free options. Both my .257 WBY and .264 WM are 1:7" twist. The heaviest I have for my .264 WM is 156 Berger vs. 163 (and maybe 180 soon) for my .257 WBY. [/QUOTE]
