Remington m25 in .25-20 brass life

[Eddie Southgate]

Is the m25 as hard on brass as the m14 and m141 ?

I shoot several model 25s in 25-20 and haven't found them to be rough on brass. All the stuff I shoot are 60 grain high speed factory loads, or Hornady 60 grain flat points hand loaded to factory specs. Compared to model 14s they are not a problem.

Yes, the M25 sniper rifle is just as hard on brass as a standard M14. Because the M25 is mechanically identical to the M14 platform, it inherits the exact same violent, gas-operated extraction system.

Gee, I didn't know they made a gas operated Model 25 Sniper rifle??

The M25 sniper rifle is a variation of the M14, just not chambered in a .25-20. These models also share the designation with Remington's M25 and M14. That post was correct, just not relevant to the topic at hand.

Guess I should have specified m14 pump . Figured this being the Remington forum and not a military board that this would be understood.
