RE: WINCHESTER
The 25wssm will match 25-06 velocities but not beat them. It does this with 2'' less barrel and a short action rifle. So you get a little lighter,handier rifle wiht the same velocities. If the ammo runs the same price as the 223 wssm it will be around 18$ a box here. I to am a winchester fan. Something to remember when getting into the wssm is that there will not be many factory loads for a while. Currently only Winchester will be loading for the 25wssm but if it takes off like the 270,7,300 wsm others like Federal may start loading for it, but that could be a couple years. Do you reload? One more thing it will be MONTHS before the 25wssm hits the shelfs.
