Default RE: Winchester .25-20

I took a likeing to the 25/20 WCF a long long time ago, and in fact had a custom "K" frame S&W revolver built and chambered for this round...



You can also see in the pict. (left to right) a factory 25/20 WCF round. Acustom "swaged" (by me) 25 cal. "Keith" style SWC bullet handloaded round. Andlastly, a roundloaded with a pointed bullet, showing why i designed a SWC bullet just for this revolver...

Another trick i've done quite a bit of in the past, is to take a spent shotshell primer, take it apart and use it for a jacket to "swage" a nice 25 cal. bullet for this gun...

I've had a lot of fun shooting this S&W, and i've also harvested quite a bit of small game for my table with it too....
