25 cal 134 ELD-M

[Malxwal]

Anybody know where I can get hold of 25 cal 134 gr ELD-M ?

Hi.
I suggest you drop Edgar Brothers - the importer - an email to see if they have any. If they have, then any shop with an account can get you some. You could maybe try Hannams.

I too am a .25 fan. May i ask what you have? Sounds interesting.

Inbound is a 25 Creedmoor, built on a T3, 22" 7.5 twist Tikka varmint profile. I do have a good supply of bullets for it, sourced before I went down this road, but would like to try the ELDM too.

Seems a few folk are interested in 257 again ,,,,,

Probably not enough to see a huge variety of new bullets ? The US seem to have been at it for a couple years or more, but a lot of it centred round the 131 Blackjack, which I believe us now being made by Sierra. Out with that, it's really only Berger doing the 133 and 135, and Hornady with the 134, I think.

I've been getting mine from spud 1967 if he doesn't have them in stock, it has only taken a couple weeks for them to come in

25 Creedmoor brass was just released....finally.

A 25 XC would be sporty

I'm sure it's been done.

I have some Peterson LRP brass, but will likely use necked down Lapua 6.5 LRP, just easier and cheaper.

I think the Sierra produced Blackjack will be a good bullet to try. That’s if you can get it over here.m yet

If only we could get a decent supply/ choice of .25 cal bullets both lighter for the 1/10 say .25-06
& heavier new stuff for the 1/7 1/8 twist folks

I love my .25-06 but just not choice for ot compared to other calibres

The 25-06 in a fast twist though .. but then you also need available, quality brass

 

[Ronin]

Stabdard twist is 10 for 257

But if you want heavier than 120 you need 9 or 8

Your then looking at cut rifled barrel though Walther May do faster twist too

Yeah brass is another shortage / luck of the draw

25x47 seems to be the 25cal flavour of choice.

100% of the AG Cup competitors shooting a 25cal are shooting a 25x47 this weekend, and nearly a quarter of all competitors are using one!

 

[Malxwal]

Just checked Hannams stock price list. Quite why the 25 cal 134 ELDM is the most expensive of all ELDM bullets I'm not sure...

Form from 270w/ 30-06? Both available in Norma/ Lapua.

Fast twist 25's are lightning on deer, I have the 134's but the 131's are much better IMO.

I should clarify, I think the 131's are better in the air. Once they hit a deer, they are both fine.
