What People Are Saying

First impressions from the team and insiders who spent time behind the rifle with 25 RPM.

Barnes Bullets
R&D Engineer
“When I received the early versions of the chamber print for the 25 RPM, both the Barnes team and I immediately got excited. It was a bullet designer’s dream. The fast twist rate and thoughtfully designed freebore gave me tons of options to optimize a new LRX copper bullet.”
Jayce Kadoun
Managing Editor, Guns & Ammo SIP
“Seeing a buck backflip for the first time sold me on Weatherby’s .25, and its capabilities at long range make it a certified killer.”
David Faubion
Editor, Guns & Ammo Special Interest Publications
“The .25 Weatherby RPM is perhaps the finest cartridge yet in Weatherby’s long history of innovation. If you’re a quarter-bore fan, it offers an excellent blend of lethality and external ballistics without excessive recoil.”
Joseph von Benedikt
Outdoor Writer/Podcaster
“Hunters that love quarter-bore cartridges have been yearning for a modern, fast .25 that's optimized for heavy, high-BC projectiles. Weatherby's new .25 RPM is all that and more... it just might be the best .25-caliber hunting cartridge ever designed!”
