The 25-20 is one of my favorites, I have several of them. I shoot a lot of cast loads out of mine and really like the Speer 75 gr JFP for my later guns and Savage 23 bolt action. They are accurate and if the bore is heavily pitted, won't foul like the cast loads will. All of my rifles will hover in the one inch area for 5 shot groups at 50 yds. Look at powders like 2400, Green Dot and Unique. My cast bullets are 86 grains from R&R bullets out of Nebraska. Enjoy the rifle. Ryan
