[QUOTE="lancetkenyon, post: 1773850, member: 68875"] I had a .25-06AI for years. Killed a lot of deer with it. I had a 28" 1:10" and ran the 115 Bergers just fine @ 3450fps. I now have a 25SST w. 26" 1:7.5" built to run the 131s. I can get 3250 pretty easily with H1000. I am really hoping Berger jumps on the .257" heavy bandwagon. I think they would sell the heck out of a 130 Elite Hunter. Even if it was "only" a .650 G1 BC +/-. I hope they see they resurgence in the quarter bores that Blackjack has brought on and add another option to the high BC .257 bullet selection. Blackjack suggests 1:7" for the 25CM, 25x47L, .250AI type of rounds capable of 2900-3000fps range. 1:7.5" for 3000-3300fps velocity range. 1:8" for 3300+fps due to rotational distortion. I think the .25-06AI would be best served with a 1:7.5" to 1:8" twist rate. I think 3250-3350+ would be easily attainable with a 131 Blackjack. [/QUOTE]
