Home Forums Hunting & Shooting AR and Tactical Rifles 25-45 Sharps

Been playing with one of their barrels and it has been a hoot.

All speeds were shot in a 16 in.barrel in an AR-15 carbine.

Hornady 87 grain sp.#2530

Over all length: 2.272

RL-7 powder-25.8 grains

Speed is:2842 fps

Shot some Seirra 90 grain hollow points with same load and they went 2851 fps.

Seems to shoot both in the same 1 inch or tighter.

After doing some shots with H-335 it is nice to find something that works.

It took out 5 pigs out 2 days ago.

Might have to get my own barrel but in 20 in.

Just finished converting 400 pieces of brass to 25 caliber and it took a little over an hour with a break.

Playing with one too, loading the 90 gr Sierra hp 27 grs benchmark . Guessing 2750 under moa in my 16" blackhole weaponry barrel. Haven't shot anything with it yet. What bullet did you use on the pigs?

Hornady 87 grain sp.

#2530

Using this one from Sierra as well these days:90 gr.Gameking #1615.

They both have been good ones for this because they are shorter than others.

We did have some TNT bullets come in the other day but have not used them yet.

Ill have to give reloader #7 a try! I did take a large doe with the 87 grain sp last Novmber, sharps Factory ammo 70 yrds bang Flop! worked on a bunch of brass yesterday!
