It'll smoke a Weatherby......100grn bullet at an honest 4000FPS. It does need a long barrel though to burn all that powder.

I am always intrigued by 25 cal. cartridges and guns. I have two 250 AIs, a striker and a Encore pistol, a 25-06 AI varmint rifle, and my stepson just bought a Mauser in 25-06, that I will reload for. I also have a 25-284 rifle that I sat on the back burner to complete until we can get our housing/my shop area settled.
But awhile back I ran into a set of dies I couldn't pass up, 25/300 RSAUM. My thought ran to a Striker, or rear grip SP with about a 18" barrel. Here is a picture of the loaded round, 100 gr. Barnes, by the dies, http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d101/mutwagn/image.jpg

I shot 500 yards last week at a 12x12 steel plate, and was zeroed in at 100 yards, I only had to add 4 clicks to the scope, to compensate for bullet drop,

FYI a 257 Weatherby is exactly that a 300WinMag necked down to 257, 70gr Blitz Kings @ 4500FPS It's love at first flight.

Dean

For your information you are exactly wrong the 300 is .071 longer the 300 body is .183 longer and has 6.1 grains more capacity.
