.25-284

[Rembo]

What i really need is a 25 cal pilot for my lyamn trimeer., I'll take the bullets though.

I make my own pilots....if your trimmer has a 3/16 x 3/8 long stud like my Forster I can whip one up for you real quick...gratis.

I might even have two 25's. I'll check.

How about a 25-7.5 French PP? That should function fine, and let you use your barrel. - dan

Only problem: that MAS-36 has already been butchered by Century arms and converted to .308 Winchester which is a good round but is way too short to feed correctly from the mag; the left side rounds' noses always end up bumping under the edge of the chamber.
A 25-06 is too long but the 284 Winchester is just about perfect. Very successful conversions have been done in 30-284 from 7,5 French. Too bad the barrel has been set back and re-chambered, I might have opted for that.
Now, I have a very nice 25-06 heavy varmint barrel at hand and I was wondering if it had enough length to allow re-threading and re-chambering in 25-284.
PP.

There should be enough meat in that barrel for what you want PP. I haven't forgotton our previous conversation about the sniper versions by the way, I just haven't seen Ted in a while. - dan
