If your un-sure your bullet choice will hold together for close range shots the Nosler patrician would be your primary choice.
I only shoot Hornady bullets in my .25 caliber rifles, the Hornady 100 gr spire point along with the 120 gr HP. The
" discontinued" Hornady ,257 120 gr HP was one of the toughest bullet Hornady made. I just picked up another
backup box from the campfire classifieds a few weeks ago. For a regular cup and core bullet this bullet is tough.
I am presently working up a new load soon using the Hornady .257 117 gr SST bullet as a back up load when my
120 gr HP supply gets critical.
The Barnes 100 gr TTSX is never a mistake providing you the bullet confidence your looking for.
