Have you measured your rifle twist? Savage 99,s twist in 250 vary.

Best hope would be to take a 100gr Nosler Partition and file the lead tip off it may shoot if you wanted a tougher 250 Savage bullet. (One forum member told me that trick, thanks)

I tried the 117 Gr Round Nose and it did not work in a 1-14 twist 250 Savage.

Bullet has to be short in length to shoot well in a 1-14 twist .

Speer 100 gr is one of the shorter 257 100 gr bullets.
