Of the current available factory loads, either the Hornady or Nosler Custom are going to offer you the best performance.
Hornady offers the 117gr BTSP Lt Magnum at about 2,970fps, as well as the 117gr SST. If your gun will shoot it well, this latter offereing will get the job done on anything you'll want to use the Roberts on in Alabama. Otherwise, I've had great success with the 117BTSP, when they aren't defective. I've gotten 2 boxes of 100 that were full of (over 50%) defects that would give tumbling flyers at over 100yds due to core-jacket separation. That along with problems with 7mm 140gr SST's, and some .338 200gr Spt's, I'm almost leery of using Hornady bullets. I'll extensively test them before taking them on an distant out-of-state high $$$$ hunt.
However, Nosler Custom offers the 100gr BallisticTip, 100gr Partition, and 115gr BallisticTip in factory loads. Although these aren't cataloged at as high of a velocityas the Hornady LtMags, I can personnally vouch for either of the 100gr loadings as they very, very closely match my reloads for the "bob". And, you really can't go wrong with a Nosler Partition.
My Custom M98 will shoot near 1/2" with the 100gr BallisticTips and several different powders, and the trajectory will fulfill any practical use you'll have.
(Ruger M77 isn't nearly as accurate. It's the barrel, you know !!! The M98 wears an E.R.Shaw circa 1983, and after about 1,500-2,000rds is in it's prime.. except for some pitting I picked up in the summer of 1993. Until the barrel fouls after 30-40rds,however, it'll still shoot near 1/2moa however.
If you are in the east central part of the state, PM me regarding some bartering some ammo loading if you desire, after aquiring some brass. I'm game for 5gal buckets of wheelweights for my bullet casting.......
For varmints I prefer either the Hornady 75gr HP or the 85gr Nosler BT. I whacked about 50 prarie dogs one afternoon back in 1993 in Montana with a box of 100 of Nosler 85gr BT's loaded to about 3,400fps. Even with only a 2-7x Leupold w/2moa dot reticle, I was whacking them to over 400yds with only minimal holdover and windage. Of the recovered and inspected "dogs", most were either blown into several pieces or shreaded to where if I held one up over my head, parts would touch the ground.....devastating to say the least.......
If I go back, I'll take a .223 and a .22-250, just 'cause I can...... Don't really need something as heavy as a .25... Even though the M98 with scope weighs only about 7.25lbs.
