With 25acp handloads, I start at double loads and work up to triple loads. [300% of published loads]
The recoil is painful.
22LR is wimpy compared to hot loaded 25acp

This is in a Colt 1908 or Beretta 950BS.




Low quality 25acps like a Vesta have a poor fit firing pin to firing pin hole. They can only go to 150% loading.


There is nothing noble in being superior to your fellow man; true nobility is being superior to your former self. -Ernest Hemingway
