Thanks Rum,
After 20-30 rounds you probably need to bring in the bulldozer and rebuild your dirt pile to shoot into
. Lanyard??? Hell you should be rolling it around on two wheels?!?!
Now the 264 is my kinda round. I think that would be great caliber for the hunting I plan to do. Your dirt pile should last longer also! The Kahles will be some great optics for you. I have looked at ton of scopes in the last couple months and that one has ranked high. Hope it turns out to be the firearm you have dreamed of. At least worth all the sleepless nights thinking about it
.
The 260 brass was the closest dimensions to what I needed for the 25-308 1/4 bore. The case is the same as the .308, necked to .264. So basically I just necked it to .257, for a 25 caliber. It should be a shooter. 3000fps with a 75 gr V-max or 85gr BT should be easily achieved with 3400fps well within reach at the top end. According to some of Rocky's information, a 100gr should push about 2900, which should be just fine for a heafty mulie. There are 117gr and a few 120gr bullets out there for the caliber and will get a load for them also. I can't wait to throw some lead!
I need to wait for the gun so I can get some chamber dimension before I start seating bullets. I have a machinist friend making me a few tools so I can get the correct case length and OAL.
There will eventually be more guns, but I need to work with what I have now.
