25 saum load data

I’d like to see more load data as well. I am shooting an X-Caliber 24” 1-7.5 barrel. 133 grain Bergers With 60.5 grains of H1000. I am still in load development and break in with 29 shots down the barrel. Showed
great accuracy at 500 yards.
 
Hi Russ, I am still shooting the 131 ACE, but most of the guys who get supplies from me prefer the Berger 135's or the Nosler 110gr AB's. I have both available. That one is a 25" barrel 7.5 TW....
I'm in the process of having a 25 SAUM built, just waiting for JGS to get the reamer done. I'll be trying the new Hornady 134 ELD-M bullets first and probably with N565 or RL26. I'm not sure there's enough case capacity to use N570 and still get good velocity but I have it to try if the other two don't work out.

I haven't 100% decided on barrel length but as of now I'm heavily leaning to go 22in and expecting velocity to be somewhere around 3150 with those 134 ELD-M's.

Are you using LR mag primers or just large rifle primers? Most I've talked to are using LR Mag primers either 215's or CCI 250's.

Also, did you use a short, medium, or long action and do you recall what your OAL is with those 131's in your 25 SAUM?

I have a 25 SAUM reamer I purchased from BlackJack.
