25 prc? 25-7 prc? Experiences? Gotchas? Intangibles?

I built a 25/270 wsm 15 years ago. Had Manson custom make the reamer and later had custom dies made. I only shot 100 grainers then getting little over 3600. Last week i tried the 110 tmk getting 3555 1/2" moa 100 yards. Its nice having a short action 257 whby.

I got the 25-300 WSM barrel installed and the barreled action in a Rokstok. Have the rings and scope in hand to install, then I should be ready to start working ladders with the 134gr ELDMs.

Anyone know when the 128gr ELD-x is going to be available as a component?

WTO did a 25-7prc for me. It shoots 134 eldm's at 3175 out of a 20" barrel. That's at a high node with n560. It's hard on brass at that speed and I'm using ADG brass. May experiment with n570 to get pressure down but I hate the large kernels.

Try it and see. I am at 22" 134's 3240fps n570

Pretty good #'s you got though.

Those 25-7 prc are nice hot rods. I just got a 25-6.5 prc and after my first ladder it looks like I should be running that 134 a touch over 3000 with h1000.

For the guys running the 25prc (6.5 case), what coal you guys running? I have one that was chambered by crownridge and it seems the throat is designed to be under 3" coal but this leaves me with the boat tail below the shoulder junction, would love to get the throat extended to use all the volume and run around 3.050-3.1 coal.

So far im trying 2.950 with 135 ELDM. I hit rifling at 2.970ish. My barrel is a 25-6.5 prc blackjack reamer from my understanding. I’m running it in a short action so that was fine by me.
