Love mine...any one shoot this round?what are your thoughts on it as compared to a standard 25 06
I have one and like it very much. Mine is a tang safety M77, with a 1:10 PacNor barrel. I'm running 115 Berger's with RL25.any one shoot this round?what are your thoughts on it as compared to a standard 25 06
You have to fire form which is no big deal you can fireform out in the field or at the range. Just use your regular loads, or if you are so inclined you can bump up your regular loads to make up for the lost energy forming the brass. As a rule of thumb I have found that you lose 10% in velocity fireforming IE: a usual 4000 fps load will exit the barrel at 3600 fps. Don't waste your time just fireforming with cream of wheat or what ever. It is a complete waste of components and is also very hard on the throat of the barrel, and also the forming of the brass does not come out as nice. Some times it takes several time to come out right to be completely formed.Which manufactures (if any) make brass for the 25-06 AI or do you have to fire form?
I did not know that, are there any other cases or company's that make AI so you can have instant gratification.It's the best thing that ever happened to a 25-06, Quality Cartridge makes 25-06AI Brass but I have never used any of it
