Yup it sucks. Hard to shake too.Has anybody ever told you that sometimes you exhibit analysis paralysis.

Not yet, I've got a 25 cal wildcat being chambered right now. If that thing doesn't like them then you can have em.Yeah that’s a great group, wanna sell the eldms I think I’m going to those for my 257AI
What kind of wildcat per se?Not yet, I've got a 25 cal wildcat being chambered right now. If that thing doesn't like them then you can have em.
A short fat magnum that will push the 130 class bullets around 3100 fps out of a 20 inch barrelWhat kind of wildcat per se?
Yes! I wanted to build a SAUM but don’t have the bolt face for it plus all the other projects so it has not happened yet. Keep us updated on the build!A short fat magnum that will push the 130 class bullets around 3100 fps out of a 20 inch barrel
This one should be a little faster than the saum. Has a bit more case volume. I will for sure, id probably even loan the reamer out after I get my barrel chambered if a guy wanted to use it.Yes!

I'd imagine a SAUM improved like the 6 UM but necked up to 25 cal would get you there.A short fat magnum that will push the 130 class bullets around 3100 fps out of a 20 inch barrel
Yeah probably, but I went a different route with this reamer. I won't have to use custom dies either.I'd imagine a SAUM improved like the 6 UM but necked up to 25 cal would get you there.

WSM?Yeah probably, but I went a different route with this reamer. I won't have to use custom dies either.
So....what's the parent case? Keeping it a secret for some reason?Yeah probably, but I went a different route with this reamer. I won't have to use custom dies either.
Not to derail, but what are you doing for brass? 6.5 SAUM brass necked down? Thinking of going this route instead of 25 PRC. Thx25saum and 133 bergers have been devastating on everything we have shot at all ranges. 100y to out past 800
I just killed a Ky 10 pointer(~250 Lbs) with one this week. It was a fairly short shot(182 yds) and the buck ran about 100 yds, 50 downhill and the last 50 mostly falling down the side of a steep hill. It had a tennis ball sized exit hole with an excellent blood trail. The rifle is a 25CM spun up by Brian Allen shooting the 131s at 3025 using RL26.What about the new Sierra 131gr which looks to be the same as the 131 Blackjack, anyone shooting those yet and how do/would they compare to the Berger or ELD-M as a hunting bullet?
I have some but don't have anything to shoot them in yet since my 25 SAUM isn't done.
