Guys do any of you reload the 7.62x25? Are there any hollow point bullets available for this caliber and if so where do I get them?

I've loaded them with ball, haven't tried hollowpoints as yet.
Hornady makes a .308 hollowpoint that would work, I believe they're available through Midwayusa.com and Grafs.com.

I've used a couple hundred of the XTPs and they have done well. The earlier ones in .309 were a little big for my gun (it slugged out to .308) but that's not an issue anymore.
I'm about to order some 90 grain lead bullets from Penn. They're inexpensive and available from .308-.310, so you can fit them to your gun.

Sierra .308 dia. 110 gr. RN Pro-Hunter 2100 Rifle
With a Tokarev pistol or bolt action rifle, I work up a load with Power Pistol.
With a CZ52, I use a load book, other than the 2000 edition Accurate Arms. That book is at 42 kcup, which is too much for some CZ52 barrels.
