Winchester .25 WSM next?
Has anybody heard whether Winchester might be offering a 25 caliber version of their WSM in the future? Given that they now offer a 300WSM, 7mmWSM and 270WSM it seems to me that the 25 would be an ideal next candidate. It seems to me that this would be a faster round than the 25-06 and more accurate given its short case length and fat diameter.

Let's hope so so I won't have to build a wildcat. Looks like the perfect case for a .257.

Doubt it could be more accurate than my .25-06, but if so, whoooooeeeeeee!

I have have been hearing more rumors suggesting a WSM in 338.

Winchester knocked off the .300 Heavy Express Short Mag to introduce the .300 WSM. Heavy Express has a .250 in their line, and a 6mm as well.

I don't have high hopes, but I'd like to see it in 6.5/.264 and 9.3/.366. Call me eccentric.

Doc,

Okay,

You be.

Actually a 6.5 would be nice.
