They absolutly would be,,, but no commercial 25 cal rifle barrel will stablize them. The 6.5mm is just .007" bigger in diameter and handles 160 gr. bullets [except for the poorly designed .260.] Sorry Seafire! I lost my head. boohooroger


Old age is a high price to pay for maturity!!! Some never pay and some pay and never reap the reward. Wisdom comes with age! Sometimes age comes alone..
