I'll be using .257 110 grain Sierra TGKs at around 3100 fps in a short action, 23" barrel in a round that duplicates the Roberts. Can't think of anything that crosses small game up to deer size game better, that would be as pleasant to shoot, especially in a walk around rifle. You don't need a long action to get the best out of a Roberts...you need an intermediate length action e.g a Model 70 short action, Mauser 98 action or even a Remington short action with Wyatts magazine to get close to 3" length. If you want a high bc 110 grain bullet , that Badlands Bulldozer looks good in the pictures with a bc of .570 needing a 7 twist barrel.
