Hi all.
I have looked around maybe in the wrong places but I can't find any chamber and freebore
info on these.

I called TC with no good info= they have long chambers with some what normal freebore. yes
I am sure that it is a longer chamber than a 243 win, I thought I could get a better reply from
the gun maker than that.
I like to load and shoot light bullets,and I was hoping some one that reloads and  has these could give me some
info on them.
Yes you can jump the bullets in some with good results and bad in others like weatherby has a long
free bore with good results but they are better with the heavier bullets from my understanding,as I don't
own one.

If anyone has one of the 25-06 or 270 win in the 26" heavy or 28" pro hunter that reloads and may
have a stoney point style gage with a 25 cal or 277 cal insert that could tell me the measurement from
the case head to the part of the bullet that touches the rifling I would be grateful and thanks for any help.
Kurt

HI
I send my rifle back at the warranty center ( Canada )
it's a Prohunter Camo in 25-06
I've fire 30 rounds in it, with REAL problem.
Accuracy was Really there, ...when she's firing......
And return to Zero after dissasembly seems a problem,
looks like you have to fire a couple of shot to place the whole thing..
On mine i have Extractor problem, and firing problem....
A friend of mine measure those spec for me,
He had the Stoney and modified case 25-06
He measure the COL: touching the rifling:
OAL or COL, for me its the same.
with the 100gr Nosler Bal-tip COL: 3.220"
with the 110gr Nosler Accubond COL: 3.242"
I hope this gonna help you.

BTW  Reloading a rifle, does it VOID the warranty...
Because with the problem I've experience with my rifle, i
do think she gonna go at the warranty center a couple of time.
And i don't want to void the warranty..

Thanks for some info.
As far as warranty goes I would say that could go both ways.

#1 if you shot good safe loads and not over max super hot loads I never heard of a problem
as good safe reloads will not hurt the gun.

#2 the other way could be that you use real hot loads that abuse the gun or say you used
max loads that was so far over a max load and blew the gun up AND YES IT HAS BEEN DONE.
I am sure they would not stand behind that as that would be a given on what happened to the gun.

your problem is not a reload problem with the extractor don't worry.
Thanks Kurt
