JB:

With any luck, I will soon be the owner of a vintage Savage 99 in .250.
I've read (possibly something by you) that new .250 brass ain't so hot. If so, what's the best brass for forming .250s?
I've read internet chatter that says .22-250 cases come out short and also that 6.5 Creedmores can be run into a .250 die and work okay. What would you recommend?
I tried comparing the SAAMI drawings for the .250 and 6.5 and the length to the neck/shoulder junction of the 6.5 looked too short.

Thanks.


What fresh Hell is this?
