Seems like they should be pretty good for the 25-06. I wonder how long it will be before a person could even see them being so they can't keep up with the demand they have now with the stuff they've had out forever

Yup, I'll be buying some. Probably see them in 5 years at this rate though....they can't even keep up with current demand. I almost bought a couple boxes of 115s I saw at sportsman's the other day but passed. I got a 7 twist for a reason!
 
I'm starting the search for a barrel for my 25-06, based on the calculators I'm thinking 1:7.5T is the way to go for my elevation and 25-06 velocities if I want to shoot the 130 class bullets. I'm torn bc I'm thinking that twist will be too fast for just about everything else so I'd likely be locked in to just a few options. I think 1:9 will be too slow, even 1:8 doesn't seem like a sure thing at my elevation and hunting temps, or I wouldn't hesitate to go that route. 7.5T is generating a lot of RPM's at 25-06 velocities, so makes me a bit nervous unless I'm sold on sticking with the 130's for this gun. Either way, it's awesome that Berger is making this and the 135 gr option and I would like to have them as an option in my '06.
 
I might give these a try after I hear some feedback on them. For now the 131 BJ are shooting very good for me out of my 25-284. If you guys in the states figure five years to get them, it will be ten years in Canada!
