You have plenty of competition looking for 87 grain .257 HotCor's. grin

Don't I know it! In addition to Savge's they work a dream in my Ruger #1 .250-3000 which with its faster twist can handle heavier/longer bullets, but why change up if they work a treat? In hopes of shrinking groups a hair? Meh, 1/2-3/4MOA is plenty good enough, and those .25 87's have been killing deer with alacrity for a looooong time.
