Could someone please tell me what rifling twist rate was used by Stevens in their 25-20 SS rifles ?  I assume 1/14" but would like to be sure.  Thanks !

Thanks guys !   I want an idea of what bullet weight/length will be best suited.  I am thinking about 85 grain in a flat nose design. I have two original Winchester molds at about that weight one solid nose one hollow point.  They should be about perfect.

It’s worth checking, 1/12 could be ordered.

My Stevens doesn't like anything over 80 grains.

Might I ask each of you what your preferred bullet is ?

Is that with a cast or a jacketed bullet ?
