I shoot them in my rebarreld 1-12 twist kimber montana around 3200 fps. Does a great job bucking the wind and putting Yotes down with authority.
 
This is the caliber I wanted when I built my 25.06 but, I couldn't find any brass. Later I found out you can use 7x57 brass, (if I remember correctly).

25-06 out of 7x57??? Hope you mean 30-06.

6mm Remington/ackley easily made from 257 robts and the parent cartridge 7x57.

You are absolutely right! There is something to consider. Many years ago I read an article by Jon R. Sundra that making 6mmRem brass out of 7X57 brass will add a good grain more to the internal capacity. He was correct. If I were to make 6mmRem or it's A.I. version, it would be with Norma 7X57 brass..
