It was first chambered in Model 1889 lever action Marlins long before Winchester did the same thing and put their name on the .25-20. [2] While the SAAMI pressure rating is a full 28,000 CUP, modern ammunition is often loaded lighter in deference to the weaker steels used on many of the original guns. The early black powder cartridges were ...
The cartridge was introduced as a commercial cartridge by Winchester in 1937 in their Model 65 lever action rifle, which was also chambered for the .25-20 and .32-20 Winchester cartridges. However, while the .25-20 and the .32-20 Model 65 rifles have 22-inch (560 mm) barrels, the rifles chambered for the Bee have 24-inch (610 mm) barrels.
The .25-20 Winchester cartridge is simply a necked-down version of the .32-20. [4] In addition, the .218 Bee was created using the .32-20 as its parent cartridge. The .32-20 cartridge case has been used to create usable ammunition for the Nagant M1895. This is accomplished by removing .01" from the rim thickness and sizing the case in a ...

The 6.5mm Creedmoor designated as 6.5 Creedmoor by SAAMI, and as 6,5 Creedmoor by the C.I.P. [4] is a centerfire rifle cartridge introduced by Hornady in 2007. [6]It was developed by Hornady senior ballistics scientist Dave Emary in partnership with Dennis DeMille, the vice-president of product development at Creedmoor Sports, hence the name.
In the U.S. Winchester stopped general production of .25-35 rifles in 1955, [5] but keeps producing ammunition. Hornady Ammunition produces a LEVERevolution .25-35 110-grain load with an MV of 2435 fps and a ME of 1436 ft-lb. [6] The .25-35 can be used to hunt deer, though in common loadings only at close range because of their low energy levels.
A hang-fire safety device is provided. Fire modes are single shot, limited bursts or continuous bursts with a pre-selectable cyclic rate of fire at 125 or 400 rounds/min. The feed direction for the percussion-primed 25 × 137 ammunition can be manually or remotely selected, through an electrical feeder selection device.
The cartridge was originally conceived of and prototyped by gunwriter J.B. Wood, and called the "25/32 JBW". North American Arms and Cor-Bon Ammunition then further developed the cartridge, and the NAA Guardian .25 NAA pistol combination for production in consultation with Ed Sanow.
