With Berger making high BC 25 Cal bullets and Hornady jumping in, I would love to see people’s results.
How fast are you pushing them?25 saum 135 Berger hybrid. This year’s campaign. Ranges from 200-894
I don't have personal experience in this, but I know this is available in some places.Is making 25creed as simple as sizing down 6.5creed?
Modest 2970 in a 20” bbl. Definitely 2+ grains under max so I’m thinking 3100 is pretty doable in the 20” bbl. The rifle was brand new right before the sheep hunt so I just found a decent node and ran it for the season. I may play with the load some more over the winter but it shoots really well where it’s at. Target posted was 5 shots and the rifle weighs 7lbs 2 ounces scoped.How fast are you pushing them?
Your going to be my new best friend.25-284
Yes most if the reamers have a no turn neck for 6.5 brass. It's a simple neck down and shoot.I had a 100gr e-tip load coming out of a Tikka barrel at over 3400fps. It never went on a hunt before I sold the barrel and components.

I already have .25-06 dies and am thinking about a fast twist 1:7 Shaen barrel mated to Tikka action. Need to dig up those threads on COAL management for the heavy/long .25-06 cartridges. Was plannig on a 6mm-06 due to better bullet choice and availability (shorter COAL as well), but if Hornady is re-investing in .25 caliber bullets, there may be a rapid renaissance in '23. This should take some pressure off the Berger 133 and 135 supply issues.
