Any body have one or some loading data for a .25 super? It's just a 25-308 but I can't find any data in my manuals Thanks Brent

Try "Rocky's Reloading Room." Or do a search for Rocky Rabb, who is a writer and did an article on the .25 Super.

Have a look here:
http://www.adi-limited.com/handloaders-guide/rifle.asp
It's listed as the 25-308. I think the real name is actually 25 Souper, although I have no idea where that strange spelling came from.

The ADI powders are probably quite well known to you, as many of the Hodgden powders are ADI's in a different container.

2208 is Varget
2209 is H414
Benchmark 2 is Benchmark
2206 is Bl(C2), and is near as dammit the same as BM2 anyway.

The A-Square Rifle and Reloading Manual has some data in it.

87 gr Hornady Spire Point

H-4895 39.0 to 43.0 gr
IMR 3031 38.0 to 42.0 gr
RL-15 41.0 to 44.0 gr

117 gr Sierra Spitzer Boattail
RL-15 38.0 to 40.0 gr
RL-19 45.0 to 48.0 gr

They list no 100 gr bullet Data, but I hope this helps, Sean.

The "Handloading" column by Wayne van Zwoll in the latest (Jan./Feb.)issue of "Rifle Shooter" (page 30) is about the .25 Souper.

This info on the 257DGR should give you some idea of what the 25 Souper will do and how to load for it.

The 257DGR is kind of an "improved" 25 Souper. It is a 260 Rem neck down to 25 (or 243 Win necked up) and the shoulder changed to 30 degrees.
I like the 257DGR better then the 25 Souper due to the longer neck and 30 degree shoulder. Ballisticly you will never tell them apart.
