The Gibbs line seems to be passe now. They were some of the best cartridges years ago for those looking for more velocity. Now you have short mags, long mags, belted and non belted. If I were to build a 25 caliber rifle on a long action it would be a 25-06, on a short action it would be a 257 roberts Ackley Improved. Still know guys shooting Gibbs's, but most are in my age catagory over 70.
