[QUOTE="Steve Shelp, post: 21973, member: 22"] I couldn't agree with Boyd's post any more than what he said. Especially based on that fact your not going to reload Jim. A 257 Weatherby isn't a great shooter in factory configration without playing wiht your hand loads a little. There's always exceptions yes, but a general rule, you need to tuned up Weatherby's with hand loads. The 7RUM while not as bad as the Weatherby does ok with factory ammo, but not great. The Federal 190gr and the Black Hills ammo for the 300 Win Mag has consistantly fired some amzing groups and scores in competiton. The 190gr MK is up to the task and will propably give you approx 500-600yd shooting if you use a duplex reticle and the 3 aiming point method with PBR applied to the top aiming point. This method is just a spin off of the "point-blank" catagory that Dave King laid out above. And very well worded also David! Good luck Jim, Steve [/QUOTE]
