  • I needed a day to take and put a smile on my face...So I took the Weatherby Model 307 Range XP to the range, slowed down, and put together all of my data on this thing so far. It worked - put a smile on my face.

    That .257 WM is an absolute monster. Unless you reload just stick with the 25-06 or you will be paying $80+ for a box of ammo.

      It depends on how much you shoot.
      Also, don't forget how much money you can get back by selling your brass.
      In my experience, the extra velocity works better on game.
      Nothing wrong with the 25-06, though.

    Between the kids and myself we have 3 257 Wby Mags. They all favor the 115 Nosler Ballastic Tips. RL 26, Fed 215, and Norma Brass. Velocity will be 3,400+. Beauty is the 115 Partition shoots in the same place.
    The best 100 grain bullet we shoot has been the Swift Scirocco II. The bullet holds up under the velocity of 3,575 FPS and .429 BC. It will also shoot a 120 Partition very well.

    Nice gun. I have a 340WBY MkV . Just a note... when reloading, keep the dies clean. Lube build up in the die will create lube dents at the shoulder.

    • @jefferywilliams7687
      @jefferywilliams7687 4 місяці тому +1

      Give Hornady One Shot spay lube a try. It will eliminate your issue. You are right, need to regularly clean your sizing dies. They also collect carbon and other debris.

    • @mammothammo7357
      @mammothammo7357 4 місяці тому

      Not so much lube build up in the die… too much lube on the case will cause shoulder dents. Air is being trapped between the case and the die causing those small shoulder dents.

  • @nelsondoan8271
    @nelsondoan8271 5 місяців тому +2

    Excellent results!!!
    I watched all your shots, the recoil bounces left every time, not necessarily a bad thing, because it seemed to bounce the same every time.
    There is another experiment you might find worthwhile, and it worked for me, particularly as recoil goes up. And that .257 is an example!
    I set up so that the muzzle is slightly low, then grip the forend with my left hand, and plant my face to force the muzzle up into shooting position.
    Wish I could say I figured this out on my own, but a couple of fellows who didn’t know how to bench shoot were outshooting me with my .338, and that’s what they were doing! Seems to help a lot.

    With that Hot Rod 257 you gotta lot of speed baby!!! Should put the smackdown on a whitetail at some pretty good distance.

The 257 was Roy’s favorite. Extremely flat shoot cartridge with modest recoil. It is a great combination to own. Also, pairs with a 300 Win Mag very well. I also like the combination of a 300 Win Mag and a 25-06.
