Guys this thread was started by the OP to discuss widcats. It wasn't started to argue about 50cals, snipers, and who can pee the furthest. If you want to talk about that take it to your own thread or in the PMs. Don't blow up this thread with nonsense. There's WAY too much of this crap happening in threads lately and most of us are guilty for it.
Talk to me about Wildcats

I concur 100% but I have a feeling he is not as ignorant as he leads us to believe and the only reason he is here is stir hate and discontent, whether or not he was or was not in the Military he has disgraced himself ( and or the organization he was attached too)regardless
We have already apologized to the OP and he said "Carry On" and the Needmoor does not pertain to this conversation with it's ballistic superiority,....................... As You Were
You have disgraced Mr. Furlong as well
Seriously? You want to talk about Mud and talk about how bad the forums are, and here you are dragging more junk into this dude's thread. You continue to feed the fire with this guy instead of walking away. No one brought up the Creedmoor so not sure where that came from? If you can't post anything constructive than don't post at all. I'm out.
Im not gonna read thru all the soap opera episodes above. Sounds like an interesting project. The 25 wssm is a screamer now and I don't think you would gain too much by the ackley improvement as it already has min body taper and 30º shoulder. Just keep in mind that dies are more expensive, no data out there but you could work up to it. Case forming is another step in the process. Minimal case stretch is a bonus. I think Feenix said its addicting and it is. I've done 20 Vartarg, 243 AI, 250 AI, 257 AI, 7x57 AI, 280 AI and love them all. I may try a 25x284 in the future as I like the 1/4 bore and the 284 is an amazingly accurate round. My 257 AI is very accurate and just a really sharp looking cartridge. It has never failed to drop what it was fired at. Keep us posted on what you decide.
I did a 243AI as well and didn't see much gain, Did You? and I will 3rd the addicting part of the equation

I've been wondering how much i would gain by doing this as well. I don't have a great explanation on why I wanna do it but I do and I have full intention on giving it a shot. I've always wanted to build some type of ackley and I love the short fat cases (saum, wsm, the Sherman line, etc). This way I can combine both and satisfy my curiosity
You'll never know if you don't give it a go
