Hi, Lever action shooters I'm posting here because I would think that lever enthusiast would know my two caliber choices better then anyone, 25-20WCF or 38 special.
I have an English rook rifle made by BSA at the gunsmith he can re-line the barrel in 25-20 or Re-bore and chamber to 38 special.
My question is what would someone like yourself (much more gun experience them myself ) find more exciting to own take to the range and target shoot, hunting game not a factor, mostly at 50 yrds ,open sights shot off hand and benched for accuracy.
I will be handloading for either one. But can the 38 special stay fun and interesting and accurate enough to keep up with the 25-20 which I would imagine would probably feel like shooting a lazer beam with twice the FPS then the lumbering 38.
How does a 38 special +P with a 120grain bullet perform in a 25" rifle barrel?
I know it's a tough question but any Pros or Cons will be helpful. Thanks Jimi
