    I got a bunch of 75grain boolits from a member here. CRS prevents me from naming him. I teflon taped them and shot them in my TC Contender. They were very effective on vroundhogs at 75 yards.I do not have a sizer nor gas checks for .25 caliber.. my loads were well above 1600 fps. That barrel is 14" long with a 2x7 scope.

    I run an 85g FP PB up to 1500 with no issues. 4227 is a top choice powder for it in all loads.
