257 Weatherby Pet Loads w/ 115 TSX and IMR 7828
« on: July 23, 2024, 05:32:00 AM »
Good morning,

Picked up some 115 TSX bullets and IMR 7828 powder to start load development for my newly barreled 257 Accumark and my upcoming Moose/Bear Hunt.  Wondering if anyone has any pet loads they would like to share with these components?  Also has anyone taken any game with the 115 TSX and what is your opinion of the bullets performance?

Thanks for the help, greatly appreciated.

Kelly

I run the 115grn TSX in one of my .257 Wby rifles. I use 71grns of H1000 or 72grns of RE25. I have shot heaps of feral goats and pigs down here in Aus. I also shot some plains game, Nyala, bushbuck, Impala, duiker and baboons with it in Africa.
