    25-06

    Hey there folks

    Just building up a kit for reloading and as such I'll b grabbing components etc until I finally bite it and grab a press etc.

    I'll be reloading for my 25-06 and was after a longer rang tops round, two contenders are: Speer 120gr BTSP and of course the Berger 115gr VLD.
    I'm after people's experiences and yep I have read Nathan F's info on this round.

    As I am low on Brownie points I've got to take it slow or else I'll be in trouble with the Boss lol.

    You could look at Nosler 115 BT and Hornady 117 SST as well

    Ive considered the SST which I may go to if these 2 ideas don't go well in load developing.

    115gr Partitions or even accubonds for up close

    I used a lot of Nosler 115 B tip and 110 AB in both 25 06 and. 25 08 and both work well.
