I was talking with a friend of mine and he was really impressed with my 6.5X55 Swed. So we got to talking about what he wants and what would work for him. We came to the conclusion that he would like to keep the 308win case but have a 6.5mm or .25cal bullet on top.
Dose anyone know if such thing has been made and can be found? Or will he have to get it custom made? If that be the case he may just go with a 243win. But he really like the BC of the 6.5.
Thanks for any input!

Yes, it is called the 260 Remington. It is a factory cartridge.

Yep 243, 260, 308, 338Federal all the same case.

I think the 25-308 is a wildcat called the .25 Souper.


As usual just my $.02

25 Souper is a hell of a cartridge! About like a 25-06 in a short action!
Aloha, Mark
