257 roberts pet loads

[slaroy]

Hi guys, just got my new Bob barrel from sinman(22" sporter). While I am waiting for my recoil lug, trigger, etc. I was hoping to start doing some loading...

I can look at the manuals, but I want to hear what works for you... I am going to experiment till I can find two "perfect" loads for the rifle, one for varmints (woodchuck/ coyote) and one for whitetail.

What are some combos that work for you... Thanks in advance for your input!

I have always liked 4895 or 4064 in Rem brass with Rem primers behind 117-120 bullets for deer and antelope. Not max velocity, but very accurate.

My friends tell me that RL19 gets better velocity.

I have good luck with Reloader 15 and the 75 grain v-max

Thanks Guys... much appreciated

UJ; seems like we both share an affinity for 4895.

Now I just gotta get the work done so I can post some pics for you guys!

One of my favorites 75 Speer HP with 42.5 /IMR4895 @ 3200fps cloverleaf groups. Check your books and work up. Had good luck with Berger 115s and H414, especially at long range.good luck
