Hi Folks, Does anyone have a recommendation for a bullet for a .250-3000 with the 1-10 twist (as in a 14 Classic)in 100 grain or heavier? I took y'all's suggestions for the 87 grain HotCor bullets for the 1-14 twist, and it works fantastic with 3031. I am pondering a 1-10 barrel in a 14 Classic, and was wondering what y'all are finding accurate in 100 grains or greater? Any advice or suggestions would be great appreciated. smile God Bless, Marc
Hordany,Speer,Sierra,nosler,barns,even go with winchester, or remington
Hornady 100 grain SP/33.5 grains of H-4895 (2837 fps) works to perfection in my 700 Classic. Very, very seldom will shoot a group larger than 3/4 inch. First load I tried so load work-up wasn't a problem. grin
I have had excellent accuracy and deer killing ability with the Sierra 117 grain Pro Hunter behind Reloder 15 powder. I use this round in my Savage Model 110 WLE in 250-3000 with a one in ten twist barrel. Tack driver with 85 grain Nosler BT, one ragged hole at 100 meters. I have also had ragged one shot groups with the 117 grain if I do my part and it is a calm day.
In my Model 14 250 Classic both Barnes 85 & 100 grain bullets print equally well. My go to powder remains H4895 and the loads are as follows:

85 gr. TTSXs & 34.5gr. H4895

100 gr. TSXs & 35gr. H4895

Results may vary. wink
