[QUOTE="300 ultra, post: 494645, member: 24612"] My father passed away and left me a rem700 ADL in 30-06 with a bushnell scope. It has been sitting in the safe so I figured I should do something with it since I will never get rid of it but definetly dont need another 30-06. So I have been brainstorming on what to build. I decided on a 25 caliber since I dont have that flavor and was looking through the Nosler reloading book and it shows that the 25-06 with a 24" barrel is 100+- Feet per second slower than a 257 weatherby with 10 grains less of powder. Is this right? I am just going to use the action off the ADL and the rest will sit in a tote. I am going to put a 24" Lilja barrel in#3 and a classic turkish walnut stock and use it as a gentleman's rifle. Any thoughts on twist rate? I am thinking 1 in 9. Appreciate responces. Thanks [/QUOTE]
