A friend has RCBS dies for 25-284 and brass cases marked 25-285.Does anyone know where brass or loaded ammunition can be found. Thanks, Byron

[Ditchtiger]

Is this an old caliber or a wildcat? I'm looking.

Ditchtiger, Thanks for your help. Byron

What are you shooting this out of? Just curious.

Why not neck down 6.5x284 brass? Only going from 264 down to .25 caliber. Might be some light neck turning.

Ditchtiger,I friend I served with in Nam inherited the rifle. He said it had a Douglas barrel on a Mauser action. He inherited dies with it.
I am a 25 caliber fan and use a 257 Roberts handloaded with 117 gr Hornady BTSP. Byron

The 25x284 is a wildcat cartridge. You will have to make your own brass for it, no one I am aware of manufactures it. I`d go with 6.5x284 breass to work with. The 6.5 will require less neck sizeing and should be easier to do. Hornady, Lapua, and Nosler offer 6.5x284 brass and in a pinch 284 Winchester brass is available with Winchesters headstamp.
