25 Creedmoor with something other than the 131 Ace?

[Marksman]

Does anyone have reloading data for a 25 Creedmoor with bullets in the 75-120gr range?

Is 25CM even a SAAMI cartridge yet?
Or are you still in wildcat land?

I'd say, see if you can find someones 25 Souper loads, and start low.

Powders in the 4350, H414, RL17, PP2000 should work well.

At least they do in my custom Stevens 200 in 250 Savage at +P+ pressures... Lol

Dig out a Sierra manual and reference their 250 Ackley Improved data, which is nearly identical. Reloder 15 and 17 are both good choices. You might call Paul Box at Sierra tech support, I've found him friendly and helpful, and he did the 250 AI testing. I wouldn't be surprised if he has tested 25 CM.

I'm not aware it has SAAMI cert but then it's odd that Alpha sells 25 Creedmoor cases so it may not be long.

The near twin is 250 AI.

I shoot a 10T Krieger 25 Creedmoor with 43 grs H4350 , BR2 & 100 gr Barnes TSSX for sub dime size groups @ 100 yds. Haven't tried any other bullet since this is a hunting rig. My cases are fireformed 250 Savage Hornady.
Those Alpha cases are small rifle primer only.
Let us know what you end up with.

The 115 Berger has been good out of my 25-06AI at 3350 FPS. Depending on your twist I’d look into some of Hammers bullets also.

I swear I used to have the Sierra 250 AI load data in PDF form, but I can't for the life of me find it.

25 Creed is identical to 250AI except Creedmoor brass may have a slight lesser capacity, use 250AI data but back off 5% to start

 

[Dusty Stevens]

Try the 117smk

I think that Alpha now has both large and small primer 25CM brass.
