Hornady released a .257” 134gr ELD Match bullet (.645 BC) in 2024
I can't find any info on the barrel twist rate required, but suspect it will be 1:7.5"?
Selling in NZ for $110 for 100.
so a fast twist .25/06 will now be able to keep up with a .270w
yet the plonkers only made the similar in .277 145grn ..... oh how I wish Nosler would tip the 160grn partition and stick boattail on it to up its BC ,the playing field would be somewhat leveled then.
but then again,that .257 is the match version ELDM not the ELDX sst version so maybe not relevant for hunting anyway???
ELDM are extremely effective for hunting.
There's been a few threads about this one. It looks like a good bullet but likely requires a custom barrel for the twist rate to use it.
A lot of USA guys went and got 1:7 .25 Creedmore's made up for those 131 blackjack bullets and these are the follow ups
