[QUOTE="AZShooter, post: 1088995, member: 5219"] Factory barrels are usually 1 in 10 twist which limits the length of the bullet. Sure you could go with a custom barrel and a faster twist. How many 25 cal owners have done that? Enough to warrant making a longer higher BC bullet? It is unfortunate that the 25 cal bullet offerings are limited when compared to other calibers. IMO the best and readily available is the 115 Berger VLD. It has helped me and my friends kill 16 coues wt, 4 mule deer, 6 elk and 1 antelope not to mention 2 javelinas. Many shots were over 350 yds. Typically these bullets exit and often cause the animal to just drop dead without even twitching. [/QUOTE]
