Thanks to Joel Russo I have my new CURTIS CUSTOM SS single shot action in hand and ready to start the new 25 SAUM IMP build...
Slickest action I have had my hands on in a long time...
Pinned scope base....
Pinned recoil lug....
DLC Coated bolt....
700 footprint.....
Planning on scoping it with my old 5.5-22-50 -NP2DD- Nightforce ...
Need to hunt up a Jewell with safety for it.....Axiom.RSjpg.jpg

That is just a nice old Claro Walnut stock I've had for quit a while...
Dug it out a few weeks ago and did some checkering on it..
Figured I would use it on the new build instead of just setting in the corner..
Probably be a couple of months before the it's finished..
 
What twist barrel is this? There will be a new high BC bullet coming out soon if you want to fling something slick out of that 257.

This one is a 10 twist BRUX ..
It better be a better bullet than the 110 BIB's that I'm shooting out off most of my 25's..
 
Sorry for delayed response.

I will be selling high BC 257 bullets in the coming months but they will require 1:7.25" twist to be stable in all conditions in North America down to freezing temps and sea level, and that twist rate will be the twist I will stock in the blanks I will be carrying in my online shop once everything is released. If a guy calculates his needed twist rate given his local or expected environmentals a guy could get away with a 1:7.75 or 1:8 in slightly higher Density Altitudes.

The bullet with be in the low 130 grain class and have a very aggressive form factor and high ballistic coefficient.

To simplify an explanation of the performance - in a short action AI magazine and a Creedmoor case there is really no better bullet/case/magazine combo to date. This bullet will make match rifle setups really shine while also bringing new life to 25-06, 25 WSSM, 257 WBY, and Roberts' cartridges.
 
I would be very interested in a high BC .257. I am a big fan of 25 caliber but have had to build 6mm's and 6.5's because of the lack of tactical bullets in 25 caliber. A low 130 grain would be perfect. I think a 25 x 47 or a 25 Creedmoor would be as good and probably better than the 6's or 6.5's.
Heavier bullet than the 6's and higher velocity and flatter trajectory than the 6.5's. ​
Would sure like to find out. Romulus, do you have a web-site? I'm in.
