Heavier .25 bullets?

[MaxPower]

Will we ever get bullets heavier than 120 grains in .25 cal?

I'm not talking anything crazy like 140-148 grain, but something like a 128 or 132 grain would be amazing in a .25-06.

If this has been discussed already (couldn't find it....) I'd enjoy a link.

Hammers in 121 and 128 grains. mtmuley

Problem is most manufacturers use slow twist barrels for the 25 cals. If that changes, it might change the bullet offerings out there.

I heard somewhere that a 130 was coming down the pipe. I don't know where I read that though. It would be cool if they worked in a 1:10 twist

I'm not sure there are going to be any heavier weight bullets for the 25 caliber.
Yeah there are a fair amount of 25-06 out there, but not enough to warrent much research and development when compared to other calibers.
That coupled with most newer 25's having a 1:10 twist, and the older Savage 99 having a 1:14.

I was amazed Hornady bothered to develop their 110gr ELDX.

These are the latest and greatest and you can purchase them now.

Hammer bullets are also exceptional bullets from all of the reviews I've ever read on them.

Of course you'd need a faster twist barrel like a 1:7 or 1:7.5.

I am fairly impressed with what my 257wby's due with 120 partitions including longer ranges. I would love to see a 120ish gr accubond. The accubonds, partitions and interbonds are only bullets that can handle that speed on game from my experiance.

I’ve had the 115 Ballistic Tip hold up well from my WBY, even at close range.

Maybe Nosler would make us some 120gr ABLR's???
Blatant hint to Nosler!!!!!
