Weatherby 25 RPM 117gr Barnes LRX Rifle Ammunition

Weatherby 25 RPM: Modern Magnum Performance in a Compact Package

The 25 RPM represents a thoughtful evolution in rifle cartridge design. RPM stands for Rebated Precision Magnum—a modern case architecture engineered to deliver magnum-level performance in Weatherby's lightweight Mark V 6-lug action without compromise.

Design Philosophy

The 25 RPM follows the proven success of its predecessors, the 6.5 and 338 RPM. The concept is straightforward: create a true magnum cartridge that functions in a lighter, more compact rifle while maintaining velocity and long-range capability. This is precision engineering at its finest.
