Fugured I'd throw this up in here that some friends up in Oklahoma are expanding a quarter bore match bullet lineup. They have barrels and all.

Very interesting!! But it requires the much faster twist to shoot them. .330 G7 BC is a high BC for a 25 cal bullet, even in comparison to other similar calibers and weight.

Yup. My barrel combo with 115 dtac trues out at 320 at 3070. This 257 bullet in a x47 or creed case running 2940 would most likely be same dope but better barrel life.

Very cool!
Yay for shooters! Bullet, powder, brass, and ammo makers keep raising the bar.

Yup it's a great time to be a shooter/reloader.
