I have a 25-06 built on a Win. model 70 pre64 reciever with a 26" Douglas barrel that just shoots lights out bottom line. My partner Mikie/Tx will testify to that also.
Problem is, is that when the smith was reaming out for the chamber, the reamer broke and gouged the sidewall to where when a round is fired it leaves a bulge on the case down where it head spaces. I can't full length size the cases down past the bulge without setting the shoulder back and quite frankly this has had a sour taste in my mouth since he finished it. I told him I know S..t happens, why dont't you go in half, or knock half the cost off the job and lets get another pipe. Well he wouldn't budge and said it's still in SAMI specs. Like I said, that dam thing shoots, but it's not right and I'm not happy. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif
Anyhow, enough bout my bad luck. What I was wanting some feed back from yall ss I would like a 25 caliber round, but still use my standard 06 bolt face. Like say: 25-06ai,25-284. Which would give the best overall performance with bullets from 100-125.
