25-06AI will get close to the Weatherby as well. Mine shoots the 115 Berger at 3350 fps with no pressure signs using H1000. In a Short action I would go with a fast twist barrel in 25SST (Sherman Short Tactical). Guys are driving the 131 Blackjack to around 33-3500 fps. The 25SST would be my top pick if I was building a 25 cal right now. The Gibbs is also similar the the Sherman design. The Sherman has a longer neck. I built a 6.5 Sherman and they sure do work. So I am sure the 25 Gibbs is a good performer as well.
