	BobZ there are no secrets it's just something I have been wanting to try due to my success with the 28-35. I have a 25 Hornet chambering reamer but several are already being used and that is not the case with a 25-35. The Hornet is pressure sensitive and very limited to how much powder can be used and how much velocity can be achieved. I believe pressure signs start being seen in the 8.5 grain range depending on powder being used. I have ready taken the 25-35 up to 13 grains using 300MP. I have never been a fan of small capacity cases having tried several without success in the past and most also required the use of a wad. Don't get me wrong the 25 Hornet has clearly proven it's success I just wanted to try something more forgiving and user friendly that is not currently being used. We currently now have two in our group and a third, forth and a fifth are already on the waiting list to be done.

	Here is the data shown on the bottom more clearly defined. Rifle is a CPA Schuetzen Junior / Model 52; Bullets the Mos 120 grain Spitzer's Breech Seated; Primers Federal Large Pistol Magnum Match; Alloy 1-16 Tin & Lead; Lube JJ250, Powder 300MP, Charge 9.4 grains, and Sights 11/2 Unertl 20X. Barrel is a 28 inch #3 Half Octagon to Round Douglas with a 10 inch Twist and the data for both targets is also the same

	John try the 256 magnum next, I thought it would be a good choice since it shares the same rim size as the 357 Mag, max, etc. so would be a good switch barrel for the 32 MS and family of rounds.

	Today's test results all the load date is the same as the prior two targets shared. These 200yd. Targets were shot in the order as marked with no breaks taken between and if anyone has any questions please feel to ask. I don't see a need to post anymore in the future the 25-35 is very capable of being extremely competitive breech seated off the bench. All three targets scored 249-9 centers.

	Thank you Ray and in all Honesty when I had my Stroke back in 2011 and l lost half my eyesight in my right shooting eye. I am not the one who could really do it any justice but I do know there are several out there who can and might want to try. That is why I am sharing what little I am able to do.

	Thank you very much Bob my real hope is in that someone here can take it too where l cannot. Five 200 yard targets shot seven days apart in varying conditions and only dropping 7 points. Is what I would hope to encourage others here like yourself and your Wife to do allot better than I can do myself.
