[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 842105, member: 48043"] I haven't turned 25wssm into 223 wssm but I've gone the reverse and it pushes the shoulder neck juncture back a bit as the shoulder angle is different (28 (223 and 243wssm) vs 30 degrees(25wssm)). It'll take a fireform to straighten her out I'd guess even though the 2 degrees isn't a lot. You don't have much extra bbl. life with this one for fireforming; I'd try to get some 223 or 243 brass first before I work with the 25 wssm stuff. In any case good luck with the rifle; these little calibers can run with the big dogs pretty well. Also, welcome to the forum! [/QUOTE]
