[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 3872013, member: 5412"] The case is a necked down 30-06 to 257 caliber. More capacity for higher speeds, but I think the bullet manufacturers have kind of lost interest in it in favor of the more popular calibers currently. It was called the king of the quarter bores in its heyday. What was interesting when the WSSM cartridges were coming online, the .25 WSSM only matched the 25-06 while other WSSM rounds exceeded the velocity of the calibers like the 6mm and the .223 WSSM's. It's still a great cartridge and will be around forever. I have seen some ammo at our Atwoods, but since you're in the roll your own society now, keeping supplied with ammo would be easy. [/QUOTE]
