that has been skillfully adapted to a 8-shot .255. I think the late .357 chassis would be a little more handy in retrospect. It sure holds steady and shoots well. The Contender barrel is a custom 10" on a 1974 chassis set up old school with 2.5X scope. This is a 100 yd. group. Velocity is about like a .22 WMR rifle while shooting 80 gr. bullets. They have some whack.

This is how you do it. Run a .22 Hornet through the .255 sizer to expand to .257", then load a .25 bullet this is a 60 gr., a fire formed case.

.25-20 bullets give the best performance. Hornady makes

Keeping in mind that formed case is the same length...
