I am a big fan of anything .257 and think the 25 Rem is a great cartridge even though it didnt survive long. I have a Remington Model 30 Express and a (rebarreled) Ruger #3 in 25 Rem. I am currently in the process of cataloging load data for them since not much is available from the usual sources. I was surprised to find out that the 25 Rem is closer to the 25-3000 than to the 25-35 (despite what some loading manuals say). By my measurements, the case holds only 1 or maybe 2 grains less than a 25-3000 (which is another great cartridge, btw). In these two strong actions I have been able to duplicate 250-3000 velocities with little trouble.
