Ruger #1 257 Roberts
100 gr Nos. Ballistic tip
48.5 Rl 19
3077 fps
300 yards
Leupold vx3 2.5x8
fired two added 2 clicks fired 2 more. Called it good enough
Headed to central Wyoming this coming weekend for an Antelope hunt with the Kessel’s. Rifle has shown a real affinity for the 100 gr BT and I couldn’t locate any 110s or 115 so it’ll have to do. Pretty much eliminated one variable on the hunt.
As with my 300 HH I’ve done some work to this rifle as well. I did not have to replace the trigger however.
I’ll take the 275 Rigby as a backup; Got a real nice 200 yard three shot group with the 140 BT/49 gr rl 17 but my 300 yard group fell apart. Only enough 17 to load one box of Cartriges so it’s as close as it will get as well.
