So given it will only be used for up to 250m and the rifle is designed around factory length ammo and being a semi probably I probably need to crimp the ammo, what would be a suggested non premium bullet to try first?

Thanks

150 Sierra Gamekings is was I use for up to 300m. They seem to work much better than the 139/140gr (Hornady/Sierra or Nosler) I used in the past. This in form a 7mm08 and I am picking your results would be even better from a 284W.
