In the past I've used the 75 grain Sierra HP over 44 grains of IMR 4064 for most of my .257 varmint shooting. My Ruger 77 RL really did well with that load. What was on the receiving end really did not.
They were also friggin' wicked in a Ruger 77 VT .25-'06.
I've got a box or two of the new-ish 70 grain BlitzKings to try out in the new .257 when it arrives. If they shoot well, I 'spect they may be my go-to small varmint bullet.
