Just neck a 308 Win down to .277 and you call it a 27-08 and you have a good round. Also, a 25-08 would be cool and easy to reload if we ever get in a reloading pinch like we did 10 yrs ago. I was very low on brass back then but I could still go to the shooting range and find once fired .308 cases. The last thing we need is another caliber unless it can be reloaded from polar cases like the 30-06 , 308 ETC.
Isn't the 25-08 the 25 Souper?
About anything you can imagine has already been tried as a wilcat. If the resulting cartridge didn't or doesn't survive doesn't mean it was or is really useless, it usually failed because there's something else that's so close to it that there's no real reason for it. I really believe that the .270 Winchester only survived in a sea of 7mms is because American's were in a period of anti European or anti German anything and MM was conceived as German or at least European..
