[QUOTE="Drummer Boy, post: 589177, member: 40031"] Hey lads, I am new to this forum so please bare with me. I have a great old Tikka m65 that I have rebarreled to 25-05 standard chambering in a 26inch No. 4 profile barrel and found that one of the best powders for this cal. especially with at least 26inch barrel is the Reloader 25. This powder seems to be made for this cartdidge. I am always carefull not to give out too many specifics concerning loads but I have found that using the reloader load data I have been able to achieve some great results with this powder and the Sierra 117 BTGK and the 100 BTGK.
