In addition, it was available in the Remington-Hepburn target rifle. While the .25-25 was popular, the .25-21 offered "practically the same performance and was a little cleaner shooting." It was also found the usual black powder charge of the shorter, bottlenecked .25-21 offered "practically the same ballistics" as in the .25-25. It was highly accurate, reputedly capable of generating groups at . In power, the .25-21 was outpaced by the .25-20 WCF and .32-20 Winchester, while today, even modern pistol rounds such as the .38 Super offer superior performance.
