AR15 platform in 25-45 swift

[randyrat]

Just imagine, an AR15 platform (less weight than the AR10), same mags, basically same brass sized up .257 6.5 mm (thinking 80 to 100 grain), only a barrel change, all of this with more thumb than the 5.56......
Sure you can buy a Sharps complete rifle and no doubt it is quality, or build your own.

Was not the 25-45 a Sharps?

I have a 25/45 and its a nice caliber. IMHO They push things a but to acheive the advertised numbers. BUT, since Hornady released the 110 FTX BULLET and I got some AA2200 powder Im enjoying 2900 fps and sub moa accuracy.

PM me if you want a barrel.

I have seriously been thinking of having MGM make me a Contender rifle barrel in this caliber. Loaded like a .25-20, it would be an awesome small game rifle.
