I do like a 26" barrel on a 257 Roy..........

100 gr. Partition @ 3,650 FPS works.

Best,

A 26 in barrel is the only way to fly on the 257 Roy. I've had a few Vanny's and the muzzle blast was ferocious at 24 inches. Converted my last Vanguard to a custom..with a 26 in barrel of course.

115 Ballistic Tips at 3450 are nasty on Coyotes..

...as are 110 AB's at 3500 on Iranian Red Sheep.

However...I'm giving my Roy's a rest. It's all about the new 6-06 for the up-coming season. Remmy 700 action, Brux 8 twist..26 in of course. Shoot's the 105 VLD's very nicely over a stiff charge of MRP. 3300 fps should do the trick!
