Does anyone know if it’s safe for me to shoot 6.5x52r in my win94 chambered for 25-35?

There are some minimal differences between the cartridges, but yes, it is perfectly safe. I`ve been shooting both 25-35 WCF and 52R ammo in my model 64 rifle, both work well and group quite similarly.

😯 I never eve heard of that cartridge and had no idea there was another cartridge that similar to the 25-35. Learn something new everyday!

Is there anything particularly wrong with Sellier and Bellot, 117 grain, SP, brass case, 25-35 ammo? I see it out there for about half of what Winchester and the rest are. Peter
