.25 Cal (Quarter Bore) / Big Game Success - 25 Creed, 25-284, 25-06, 25 PRC, 25 SAUM

Larger cases are needed to make the heavy/high bc 25 cal bullets competitive. A 20in 6cm will run heavy bullets at 2950-3000mv. A 20in 25cm will be at top end around 2700-2750mv. You have to step up to a short mag or larger to get them going fast enough to see the difference on paper. But now you're at a significant recoil disadvantage. The 25 cal trend is cool, but they are near same mousetrap as a 65mm.
