I AM BRAND NEW TO THIS FORUM AND ALSO AM A 25 CAL. FAN.
I HAVE RECENTLY PURCHASED A CUSTOM BARREL FOR MY TC ENCORE IN 25-06 ACKLEY IMPROVED.
LOAD INFORMATION IS SCARCE. SIERRA HAS DATA IN THEIR NEW MANUAL. HOWEVER, THEIR REPORTED VELOCITIES ARE THE SAME AS THEIR REPORTED STANDARD 25-06 VELOCITIES WHILE USING MORE POWDER. THIS CONTRADICTS REASON AND OTHER RESEARCH I HAVE DONE.
I BELEIVE P.O ACKLEY RECOMMENDED STARTING AND MAXIMUM LOADS OF 5% OVER THE PARENT ROUND. SOME OF THE LOAD DATA I HAVE FOUND ON THE INTERNET FAR EXCEED THIS 5% STANDARD. SO BE VERY CAREFUL. VELOCITIES ARE SUPPOSE TO AVEARGE AND APPROXIMATE 200 FPS GAIN.
CURRENTLY I AM DEVELOPING DEER HUNTING LOADS FOR MY GUN AND HAVE NOT SETTLED ON A FINAL COMBINATION YET. MOST OF THE LOADS I HAVED TRIED SO FAR ARE CONSISTANTLY PRODUCING 100 YARD 1 INCH GROUPS.
