[QUOTE="sodakota, post: 2863836, member: 81002"] I like the 25 bullets and have a 250, 257 and two 25-06’s. I’ve been thinking about a 257 BE. I like AI cartridges and have a few. Maybe running a reamer into one of my 25-06’s would satisfy my itch for something new. I don’t give a hoot for faster twist barrels. The factory twist on my 700’s work fine for the heaviest and longest bullets I would use. Fast twist is an answer to a question that I’ve never asked and never will. I’d expect to get ~ 100 FPS more with the heavier bullets - at the same pressure. I’m not sure that the difference that would make on bullet drop, windage, and affect on the game animals would make it worthwhile. The big thing for me would be case life and case stretching differences. [/QUOTE]
