I've already got a 25-06 so got the quarter bore covered and a couple wonder 9's. Even a 10mm so my mm cherry is broke so to speak..366
Too bad it's not .25 because you could then always say quarter bore for the rest of your life every chance you got. Like everybody else.
The only reason I wouldn't get it is because no one knows what a mm is except for the 9mm Lunger.
Lol
Oddly enough, I found a thread at some other gun forum where a guy thought load data for the 9.3 might also work for the .375 Whelen (improved).No reason it wouldn't work as it's ballistically very similar to the .35 Whelen.
All bow to the mighty .250 Savage! A cartridge so special, no gun on earth is currently chambered for it. ( )I've already got a 25-06 so got the quarter bore covered and a couple wonder 9's. Even a 10mm so my mm cherry is broke so to speak.
Black Jack Bullets is making a 131gr .257. Hammer Bullets is doing a few 125+gr offerings as well. I believe Berger has a high BC .257, so they are starting to come about.Alot of good cartridges go through the cycle of being/not being popular.some come back others don't. I am not a fan of the 250 savage. I could see that cartridge being brought back. If they could get the BCs for 25 caliber bullets up I can see the 25 caliber rifles becoming popular again. I shoot a 25-06 and am trying to get a 257 roberts built.
Yes, you need to match your barrel twist rate to the new bullet lengths. They don't work in a standard 1:10.The problem is that once you get past the standard weights is how well will the rifle stabilize the bullet.
