Re: Bear creek supply bullets 25 auto
Sixgun, I remember reading a story many years ago about a wimpy little guy in NY that was being messed with by a couple hells angels types, he pulled out his 25 auto and shot both, once each, in the chest, hitting them in a major artery and dropping them almost instantly.

Re: Bear creek supply bullets 25 auto
I've thought about reloading the .25 acp. But every time I look at that little bullet and my big fat thumbs... Bullet wise it's no different than loading for .223. The biggest difference is in the case, man that 25acp case is TINY! JMB wanted to make a center fire version of the 22lr and a gun to f...

Yup, got a pound. Got it for another cartridge, but never used it. Matter if fact, it's been so long since I bought it that I forgot what cartridge I got it for! Got some 700X also.
