I've always thought a .25-20 would be neat but never made it happen. Love the .358 Winchester, and have various .30s. I'll likely get a .356 before anything .25 though.

I've got the 'trio' in a pair of Sevens for the '5's (250 and 358) as well as M77s in both 30s (30-06 and 358 Norma). Got no '20' or '40' but do have several 45s.

That's probably true. I have had .35 caliber rifles in the past -all based on Model 1903 Springfield actions with .35 Whelen barrels screwed in to them. I should have kept at least one of them!!

...yep...and I think the calibers are a perfect complement...

.257 Weatherby Remington 700 CDL for long range....

.308 Winchester Remington Model Seven Stainless/Synthetic all-around shooter

.350 Remington Magnum Remington Model 7KS heavy hitter..

I have several other rifles in .308 and .350 but those are the two I use the most for hunting... I was hoping to buy a .250 Savage 7KS from one of my friends but he sold it before I knew he wanted to part with it...

Yes. I have the .250 Savage and the .35 Whelen.

Among several .30 calibers [.30 carbine, .308 Win,.30-06 [5], .308 Norma (2)] the .30-06 remains my favorite. With the first two choices, a heavy bullet .308 would be easier to match trajectories with [if that is an interest].

A true sign of loony would be breaking it down into 0.025's

For example....
20vartag, 225 win, 250sav, 275rigby, 300anything, 325wsm, 350g&h, 375h&h, 400whelen, 425wr, 450ne, 475turnbull, 500ne.

That level of rifle loony probably requires medication, though....

I have a 25 and 35 true combo. It is a Sako short action with a 257 Roberts barrel and a spare 358 Winchester barrel. Both shoot great but I admit the 257 barrel stays attached more often than not. With that combo and the way I hunt, I didn't think I needed a 30 cal.

I have two 250 savages for the 25's. My thirties are a 30 Newton, a 300 H&H, and a 300 win Mag. I don't have anything in 35 but would love to find a 35 Newton. I do have a 375 H&H and that had to count for something, right?

Let me think -

Remington 783 with swap barrels, .30-06 & .25-06

Remington 700 completely blueprinted, custom marvel in .257 Roberts Ackley Improved (for some reason this is my third rifle in this chambering, and the second on this action, which I consider my favorite cartridge.)

Remington 700 with swap barrels, .308 Winchester, .22-250 Remington and .22-250 Ackley

Garand in .30-06

Browning M-95 also in .30-06

A really peachy keen .35-348 Winchester Ackley Improved on a Siamese Mauser

One Browning M-71 Carbine in .348 Winchester - within 0.010" of being a .35, so close enough for government work.

Contender pistols with .30-30 and .30 Herrett barrels, and that palm pounding, knuckle busting, "Oh my gosh, do you know you're bleeding?" .357 Herrett. Proving a fool and his money are soon parted.

Guess I'm just not good at having even intervals. 22, 24, 26, 27, 30, 33, 37..

I guess my 27 is the 28 and my 33 is the 35. Or maybe my 37 is my 35. crazy

Downsizing has left me with a 257Roberts, 7/08, 7x57R/12ga and a 358Winchester for big game rifes. If I got really serious, I could get it down to the 257Rob. and 358Win.

There is also a RAR in 30/06 as a loaner gun.

I got askeerd of the big bores, what with them maybe over penetrating. Sold all that stuff. Even the new High Wall. All I have now is the RF BB gun. -sniff- Probably won't go to Africa now.

.25, .30 and .35?

.257 Roberts, Ruger M77 - Easily my favorite rifle and one my girls love to shoot as well.

.300 Blackout, S&W M&P15
.30-30, Marlin 336CS
.30-06, Ruger M77, Ruger MKII, Remington M700
.300WM, Ruger MKII

9mm Luger, Browning BDM, my daily carry pistol
.357 Magnum, Ruger Blackhawk

.35 rifle? Nope, have a Ruger MKII .338WM and that’s good/close enough.


Coyote Hunter - NRA Patriot Life, NRA Whittington Center Life, GOA, DAD - and I VOTE!

No, I'm not a Ruger bigot - just an unabashed fan of their revolvers, M77's and #1's.

A good .30-06 is a 99% solution.

I feel terrible.
25's: 250-3000, 257 Bob, 25-05
30's: 30-30, 308 Win., 30-06, 300 Wby
35's: NONE I'll get right on it, Sir. (.338 & 375 tho...)
Would a T/C 35 Rem count?


Why does a man who is 50 pounds overweight complain about a 10 pound rifle being too heavy?

.35 Rem. and 35 Whelan (both 7600s)

.257 Roberts in a Mauser (Need to work on getting it refinished)
.308 and .300 Win Mag A-Bolts
.35 Whelen Mauser and a R77 Boat Paddle

.308 and the Mauser .35 see the most action. Bought the .35 as a "beater" and fell in love with it.

Have a Flaigs custom in .375 H&H that was willed to me by a former boss. The Fajen stock it was in was broken, so it temporarily resides in a 798 stock until I can afford an appropriate walnut stock for it. Shot one Pa whitetail with it "just because"....

As far as the 25's. My favorite is my old .25-06.. Have a .250 Savage, but only keep it because it was my father in laws..

Lots of .30's from the old .30-30 thought the 300 Wea.

No 35 but have both a .340 and .375 H & H>..
