Best looking round

@rdog
Go for it mate but headspace to 62 thou instead of 64 as rim thickness varies a bit. If you would like to borrow my 25/303 Epps reamer give me a call. My son gets 25 ought six velocities out of his with mild pressure. Load calculations say 47,000 cup.
Remember the No will handle the 7.62 NATO round so you will have fun.

If i formed 303 /25 Epps from 303 brass & reloaded them would that make me a Transloader? . does the Epps feed out of the magazine ? . Thanks for the offer i will talk to Allan Swan about it. What about reloading dies?

BOB please send picture of a 303/25 Epps.

.338WMs? Yes, I know Bob. LOL

@CoElkHunter
Mate I'm talking real not fire breathing, bitch slapping stuff but real hunting calibers like a fast 25.

@rdog
Need to modify the mag to a single loader. Once sases are fire formed you could reload with Simplex 25 cal neck die and bullet seater or we could work something out with dies.

In the No4 I load 51 gns of 2213sc behind a 117grain SST for around 3,000 fps. The 100gn ttsx achieves a comfortable 3,200fps without straining.
My P14 loads are a lot quicker.

With the magazine issue will i probably go with the standard 303/25, no problems with dies case forming ect i am getting too old to reinvent the wheel . i have a 240 Weatherby & a 243 so i do not need this to be a 3000 fps rocket. just some thing like the 250 Savage, easy on barrels , shoulders & ears.

It will be more like the Roberts on the No4 action.

Hello,

Funny thread...!

This is my one and only forever candidate. Cartridge, brand and type.
The H-Mantel, besides their beauty, in my experience, has a performance on game second to none!!!

Best!

Entertaining! I love this thread.

 

[Still alive]

Awesome thread! My top three bullets? 300 win mag, 375 H&H and 500/416!!

 

[Wyatt Smith]

I do like that 500-416.

 

[BeeMaa]

375 H&H and 270 Win. I'd like to say 500 Jeffery but it's kinda like taking the fat girl to the prom.

I'm down with that! We all need a little love.

 

[Kevin Peacocke]

I am really liking these two-step bullets like the 500/416, 450/400, 500/450, etc. What is the full listing?
Here is the 375 FL next to the 450/400.

 

[CoElkHunter]

I'm down with that! We all need a little love.

She could hurt ya!

Yeah, but you could say that about most things that are fun. I'm still game.

If this were a 1925 advertisement, the .500 Jeffrey being sold then in their "No. 1 Model" for $355us, would be $5,655.70us if purchased in 2021, according to the online U.S. Inflation Calculator. Interesting.
