I do not have a 257 roberts but I have one of its off spring in the 6mm rem. I shoot a 100gr game king over 43 gr of H4350. It will hold 1/2 to 3/4 size groups all day long. It has 1n9 twist. You might want to try that.

Thanks for all the replies. Looks like I fit right in with my 115's. I just wanted to see if I went to heavy for best performance but it looks like 100-115 is average.

Rusty,

Great pictures of your daughter, beautiful girl!

My daughter has expressed interest in hunting and shooting. She has taken over my M700 Classic 257 Roberts show in the previous posts.

What stock is your daughter shooting? This would be just the ticket for my daughter.
You know where I am going with this........

++1 for the 100-grain Nosler Partitions. They have been accurate in both .257 Roberts' I've tried them in (a push-feed Winchester 70 and a tang-safety Ruger 77), and have been reliable killers without too much meat damage on deer from 20 to 300 yards.
