Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles .243 vs 25-06

Nappy Dumbo,

Knock it outta the park for your Window Licking Brethren and say a leetle sumptin' about your "versatile loads" in the 25-06...if only because them "particulars" will be funnier than [bleep]. Feel free to use as much Imagination and Pretend you deem requisite,to try and make that Dog,Hunt.

Wax eloquent on how in your "experience",that more recoil,more drift,more drop,less "energy",a longer action,more noise and more money are your version of increased "versatility". Please don't let the cat get your tongue or the couch get your [bleep].

Where do you amazingly dumb [bleep] come from?

Wow.









'hookem,

I'm impressed that you are dumb enough,to say the stupid [bleep] schit you do and are oblivious enough to take yourself serious. Thanks for those laughs! Someone who "knows" as "much" as you do,would do well to shut the [bleep] up,take notes and apply same...but here's to the hilarity of your being powerless to refrain and to the incredible magnitude of your Stupidity.

Cheer up,noone can insult you better than you can and Sugar Titts...you's on fire!

Laffin'!









Tanner,

I hear good things about the 243 myself.(grin)









Sammo,

I feel your pain.




I'm typically happiest with FL bushings and no expander ball...though you gotta sometimes roll Retro to iron out maligned virgins,bruised in shipment here to Kansas. While the Sierra 85HPBT is an epic POS,the schit really hits the fan with the .234BC Speer 75's and it'd take some doin' to trump it's worthlessness.

As an aside,I'd whirl a coupla 105 Max's if for nothin' more than a lark in the Montucky 1-10",if just to see WTF. For conversation my 1-10" Shilen 6mm Rem AI stabilized same...though of course we's talkin' more RPM due to the velocity increase over a SAAMI 243. You may dodge a bullet,though the odds is ugly.

Pun be intended.









Tom,

It's much to the chagrin of Window Lickers everywhere,that the 25-06 cain't hang.

Thinkin' I'm in the 243Win camp,myself.(grin)

This is SERIOUSLY funny schit!




(Addendum for Sammo):

For the 95,I'd be thinking 15 or 17. The CC's don't horn me up,but nuttin' Nosler does and it amazes me,that they's content to suck. Ordered 10 boxes of 105 Max's last night and they was under 20 clams a pop.

Many of the advantages of reloading,are negated by trying to cut corners and do schit,less the entire parcel in hand(or ever having had it in hand). I like the pony in front of the [bleep] cart...not behind it. I cain't even like to size virgins,less the rifle in my mitts,but positive headspace control is sumptin' I poke a thunk into and I assuredly ain't above driving false shoulders outta da gate. So I'll either score beeger diameter virgins,or often neck 'em up,then back down.

I don't [bleep] around during load development and don't wanna reload any more rounds than requisite,to get to the Finish Line and subsequent Mass Production. Doubly so,because I live in a Moly World and start with a Clinically Pristine bore. All that ladder [bleep] cracks me the [bleep] up and bumping schit in micro increments,is a great way to [bleep] away lotsa components and spin wheels,while attempting to let the cart pull the horse. None of that [bleep] around,is for me. I've long kept good notes and it's seldom(never),that I cross paths with a chambering SAAMI or otherwise,that I cain't extrapolate to,from primers spent in the past.

Long way of saying,I'd neither size,nor seat,less having the rifle in my mitts at the time. If it took me 5 pokes to settle on a load,I weren't payin' proper attention.(grin)

The 95 will kiss from inside the box.

Been a long/busy day. Shot for a goodly spell this afternoon,then a coupla pards swung by with a sick rifle(700 Classic 243) and before it was over,I had it all yanked apart to fix the [bleep] ups and then got to loading for it. Took 3 pokes to find the 95 SST load(boolits he swooned) and a like number for the 105 Max(which I gave him a box of,because I couldn't stand to let him suffer them horrid SST's). Hornady brass/H414 in both,because it's what he had. I've got more stocks,mounts/rings and scopes loaned out now,I'll be doing good to remember half of it.(grin)

Then it was dinner,then I went to mass producing K-Hornet and 223AI fodder,then I finished a book over coffee("Damn Few" by Rorke Denver and a fair read BTW). Took a pizz and figured I'd see what these clueless dumbphucks were yacking about and got to laughing all over again.(grin)

The rifle was a Goat [bleep]. Stock was well cracked,muzzle slammed full of nasty schit,schit crammed on the chamber wall,bases looser than [bleep],the front base extended the wrong way(over the ejection port),trigger horrid,yada,yada...the usual Newb Schit.

Bore and chamber came clean,mainly because it ain't been used much in this Kansas weather.





'Bout time to waltz upstairs,play in the box the kids came in and mebbe call it a night. Just pizzed off the porch and see there's about 1/2" of fresh tracking snow that just transpired...which don't hurt my heart.

Bet tomorrow don't suck either.(grin)
