Whats the h20 capacity on the 25 wssm?
I think a 25 wssm with a 40 degree ackley shoulder on it would look pretty darn cool, I might have to build me one someday.
Best 25 caliber to consider on a build.

Dogz, you maybe right on the 117, I don't know the answer to that.
What degree is that shoulder angle??
Ahh nice...
Looks similar to what I'm working on
Almost though we had the same idea
Whats barrel length and velocity you getting?
I haven't fired that yet, made a dummy long ago, then changed my build to a 25SS, 72gr capacity in the SS at 1.950 case length. But I've got the reamer for later.
Max is 2.01 long

Did you consider a 25 GT I believe Alpha makes brass for it
Curious what you went with on the freebore?
Thats the last piece to my puzzle then the reamer is getting finished up. I'll be shooting 133's and 134's
Have some 145 BH's too but I think they will be well into the donut at a short magnum mag length (2.960-3.00) since I'm going with a dbm on this build.
I'm fairly sure I know, but it's designed for 3.2"+ actions.
I've never seen a Sherman reamer waste valuable case body space, lets put it that way.

Getting brass is not easy at all.
Getting good brass or any brass at all? I found some winchester brass in stock but its probably not quality stuff
The .25 bug seems to biting. My hunting buddies have been bitten hard with it lately. One built a .25 Nosler, as his first foray into quater bores. The other a .25 Bobcat for AR-10 use and .25-7PRC. The one who built the Bobcat and PRC, has been using the .257 Roberts and .25-45 for years.
I started with a .25-06 years ago. Now I'm down to just a .250 Savage, happily using 100 grain bullets for everything. If I were to get another .25 cal rifle, I'd probably do the Creedmoor. Easy to find brass, and it's basically a .250 AI that I've always wanted to try.

Plain Jane 25-06 is a killing machine, AI is more better and the 25WSM is King IMHO
