I had great luck with 75g Nosler BT, not a no-lead option, but a great weight bullet for the slow twist 250 Nosler doesn't make a 25 caliber 75gr Ballistic tip

I know they are not lead free but how do the Nosler 85 gr ballistic tips work in the 1 and 14 twist?

I just do not understand the fixation of a 100 grain bullet in a 250-3000. If YOU can shoot, you can kill ANY deer on God's green earth with an 87 grain bullet. Save the 100's for a 1-10 twist. Get some 87 grain pills in either Norma (if you can find them) Speer or Hornady. Load 'em up with Reloader 15 and don't look back. There's no fixation with 100gr bullet here. California requires use of bullets with NO lead in them so that condors won't get lead poisoning when eating the gut piles left behind. Bull.. He's just trying to follow the law, not find heavier bullets.
