    .25-06 mould candidate

    Who makes a good boolit mould for a 25-06? Any experiences?

    I have a couple with and without gas check but just could not push them like the 25-06 likes to be pushed so I have been collecting stuff to start swagging rounds from spent brass to see if I can get better results.

    I gave my 25-06 to a grandkid who had taken a shine to it, but before that I did quite fine for tin can plinking using the Lyman 257312 at about 90 grains with (according to my notes) 17 grains of 4759 for around 1800 fps.

    With my supply of 4759 just about gone, these days I would most likely substitute a bit less (like 15 or 16 grains) of 5744.
