I loaded up a few this afternoon and tried them out. I started by partial neck sizing a piece of brass and lightly seated an E-Tip. I then chambered the round and took the measurement then adjusted my die to be .100 off the lands.

I tried 52gr of RL-22....I was shooting from a semi-stable rest, but not a bench. The 100 yard group measured precisely 1 inch (about the same as my Accubonds from the same rest). So I am satisfied with the group...I did not have a Chronograph on me, so who knows what the velocity is. But, surprisingly, my Accubonds hit in the same spot as the E-Tips, so that is good. No signs of pressure, also a good sign.

I am taking her out after coyotes tomorrow, we'll see how she does.

Thanks for the report. Try adjusting the COL, you might be able to shrink the group.
Good luck with the coyotes, you may be the first to kill something with the 257 100 gr E-Tip! 8)
