Looking to get into a remington 700 in 257 weatherby (26" barrel CDL). Anyone have any load data on this caliber? From what I've read, the freebore pretty long on these (Remington and Weatherby rifles).

Thanks!

Load to max mag length is the general rule.

Past that pic the bullet you want and a powder that offers a good case fill and get to shooting.

At one time Remington rifles in weathrby didn't have much free bore, I have seen blown primers from factory ammo in them. Hope remington has that figured out
