I have a Savage 23B in 25-20 and have experimented with a variety of flat nose and spitzers over the decades. Oddly, at least for this rifle, it seems to prefer the 75 gr Speer flat nose. Like the 22 Hornet I have found the 25-20 to be a bit persnickity and seems to be sensitive to small difference in a variety of primer, powder, and bullet variations. A great opportunity to spend time wending your way through the variations.
