Yes Tetawa, I have data from my rifle.
It has a 25 inch tube on a 98 action.

In .257 cal pills 87 and less are varmit construction.

So 100 and above is the go.
In Win +P brass

2209 - 51.5 gns - 100 gn Nosler BT - 3300 fps.

2213 SC - 50 gns - 120 gn Speer - 2900 fps.

Start lower and work up, the 100 gn load is warm.
