I know of an ongoing estate dispersal that includes
a Marlin 25-20 and about 1000 (yes, 1000) rounds
of various 25-20 reloads, factory, cast, molds & dies.

Last report was a gun show fellow was offering 50%
retail for his entire ammo inventory...

I handload 25-20

bullet barn and rusty woods carry bullets

brass you'll probably have to form from 32-20. Anneal and turn the mouth in using the bullet seating die before running it through the sizing die, works well for me.

As for jacketed bullets, I know someone who cut the tip off 85g hornady v-max to load for his win 92. The bullets ar.257 but he seemed to have good results.
