The 25/08 has been around pretty much since the 308 case came into being. The 25/08 is also commonly called the 25 Souper, though where that name originated seems lost to time (according to a brief search).
Here's a different idea - as the Mohawk was always intended as a carbine size rifle, why not a 338 Federal or a 358 Winchester? You can buy new brass for both from Starline and others. Should be no issues feeding from the magazine and both will do fun stuff from an 18" (or20 or even 16") barrel. Particularly once you get to the 358 Winchester it becomes quite useful as a cast bullet shooter to bring the cost way down and turn the fun factor right up. And with the right flat nose or HP cast projectile can still be a decent shorter range hunting round.
This same line of thought taken even further leads you to the 375 Raptor
