375 Ruger Wildcats

The 25-375 Ruger would be a real barrel burner plus you wouldn't get a a slow enough powder to get the best out of it.
The 257 Weatherby has a barrel life of around 1,500 rounds the 25 Ruger would be licky to get 6-800.

Yeap, in this case, you would be better off necking down the 6.5 PRC, because even using the 7 PRC would be detrimental to barrel life.

Let’s assume a fellow had a CIP length action that would run a Ruger based 458, say a Kelbly Prometheus.

And let’s assume he wanted to see what the top was for those 300 grain Barnes TSX FN .458 caliber pills those Ultimate smokeless Muzzle Loader fellows have been claiming all these impressive velocities with.

What do you think the top safe velocities would be with a heavy 26” barrel?

I saw this the other day & got to wondering…
