I use the Weatherby factory load with the 100gr TTSX bullet. Super accurate out of my Accuguard. High shoulder them and game over.

I am using the 80 grain TSX out to 350. Killed about 30 with it so far and no complaints.
Some mornings, it just does not feel worth it to chew through the straps!~

Since 100 yards is a possibility, I'd like the 100 grain TTSX.

I've only shot factory Weatherby 120 grain Nosler Partitions. I have yet to see a reason to try anything else from my Weatherby Mark V.

100 gr. TTSX, especially if close range shots present themselves. It will hold together, other choices may not, at the high velocities of the .257. This from personal experience.
I'd rather be a free man in my grave, than living as a puppet or a slave....
