Better than the .25-06 that everyone loves. Plus I like to be different. Alas, the warehouse was out of .25 blanks but had a deal on .243. So there you go…
The Rigby I love everything but the price of factory ammo. Not hard to find a (20) round box at an asking price around $200. If it’s a genuine “money shot” on big game I can manage it. I can plink with cast bullets.
The .25-35 is a lever action! LOL It would be neat to rechamber for a more powerful round but the .310 Martini action is thin at the barrel threads, needs a rimmed ctg., and is 100 yrs. old. I’ll leave it as is. It’s a custom by a man named Wells from AZ.
