After a search and reading some of what has previous been written about the 25-5 I'm ready to ask about this.
I picked up a 4" 25-5 that appears essentially new, faint turn line only, no doubt overpaid for it, but then again I haven't seen one for a ong time either.
In any case it appears to suffer from the dreaded oversized throats as evidenced by a .452 cast slug dropping through the chambers.
I have several guns in .45 colt, three third generation Colts and a S&W Mountain gun as well as a Winchester 1892 and a Uberti 1873 rifle so I would prefer not to have to come up with tailor made loads for this particular revolver.
Given that, anyone have much luck or a favorite recipe for a .452 cast slug thats worked well for them?
