Pics. .257X.225IMP.
« on: December 24, 2007, 01:35:30 PM »
This is my first 25Cal. The 16" SS, 1" full bull  barrel is made by OTT in .257X.225IMP. (AKA 257JDJ) The barrel is topped with a Burris 3X12 in 4 rings and a 6 hole scope base. The grip and forearm are made from Zebra Wood with a satin finish. I am in the process of making a wide target forearm to fit it also. This one hasn't been shot a lot but man is it accurate. With some more load D and the wide flat target forear I see good things coming.




The red dots are 1/2" Dia. Load D has only started and the isnt shot in yet.

TC Dave, will that caliber work in a Contender platform? That is one beautiful setup you've got there.

Yes the .257JDJ is Tender friendly. If I am not wrong about this the 6.5JDJ, 257JDJ, and the other JDJ,s based on the .225Win. case were developed for Contenders.
