Dropped a nice buck at over 300 yards with the 257(very flat shooting) and the 223 Ai puts most all shots in a cloverleaf at 100 yards,if I do my part..havent tried it on live targets yet.. ;D

Stevens 200 257 Roberts Savage sporter take-off 22" barrel SSS trigger Boyd's laminated stock

One Hole,
Check www.stevespages.com and www. ACCURATERELOADING.com These in addition to the #5 Sierra manual
will give you an abundance of data. When you start load development be sure to try RL15. I have tried IMR4064,
Varget, H414 and RL15 out shines them all in both of my 250AI's.
GOOD LUCK and GOOD SHOOTING!!!
