Meet the .25-327 Federal Magnum
.327 Federal Magnum necked down to .257" with a 60gr FP seated to 1.473". My little wildcat I just designed.

What a hoot! Sort of a junior .256 Winchester Magnum. Probably more practical than the .256 and also probably wouldn't give up hardly anything ballistically to it from handgun length barrels. Also could be considered a modern rendition of the great old .25-20. When's Marlin gonna chamber it up in their lever action?

I'm getting an Encore barrel cut when funds allow.
.256 Win Mag on left, .25-327 Fed Mag on right. My .256 Win Mag needed a little brother.  |

Oh man that thing is just perfect for varmints. Maybe you'll be able to use some longer rifle type bullets in it...

Don't know. The neck is pretty short.
