[QUOTE="RT2506, post: 2124123, member: 10178"] When the 25 WSSM came out my buddy got one. He has to have everything new that comes down the road and has the money to get it. Testing it over the chronograph against a couple 25-06s shooting same bullet weights the 25 WSSM was just a little faster than one of the 25-06's and just a little slower than the other. As to accuracy the 25WSSM factory Winchester rifle was not even close to the two 25-06's because both were custom built rem 700. One had a Heart and the other a Shilen Select barrel. In my thinking I would have to ask myself. Self, where are you going to find ammo or cases for a 25 WSSM? For a 25-06 if push comes to shove there are always some case in the 30-06 class to run into a 25-06 FL die and make a case. As for recoil. For me it only happens when target shooting. Heck, while shooting game I am not even conscious of the sound of the shot unless it is a pistol or a rifle with a muzzle brake when I don't have ear protection on. LOL [/QUOTE]
