Can someone on the forum provide reloading data for a 25-21 Stevens?  Powder and bullet options?

Have a CPA with Shilen barrel,  Shoot 108 gr nose pour bullet from CPA, breech seat bullet, pan lube, brass was bought from RMC.  Use 4227, 8.5 grs. and AA#9, 7.5-8 grs., small rifle or pistol primer.  Rifle is fun, shoots very well, although 200 yds can be a challenge due to conditions.  Have used it on turkey and squirrel, brass should last almost for ever, this is a fun rifle.

Ballards may be weaker,
but they sure are neater!

I have a 44.5 in .25-21 with original barrel. I use a cast 104 grain bullet with a couple different loads. One is close to what .38-55 mentioned, a 8.0 gr. charge of 4227. The other a plinker load with the same 104 gr. bullet and 4.0 grs. of Unique.
