T25 stock grind

Guys, just a question. Is there a particular reason why the M4/T26, with the 90mm gun at 6.0, gets capped AP as a stock shell (T33 shot APBC), while the T25, at 6.3, is stuck with uncapped AP (M77 shot AP). Since the APBC is objectively better in every way, why doesn’t a vehicle that is 0.3 BRs higher get it as well ? Even the 5.7 M36B2 gets the T33 stock.

There is a reason actually.
It’s powercreep.
That thing USED to be good ( keep in mind the past tense) and is, just like the regular M26, absolutely mid at its BR. ( Since M82 pen is also wrong, iirc it’s supposed to have at least 20mm more pen)
It’s seen better days, I suggest avoiding it

Well it used be 5.7 and Gaijin only ever change BRs and rarely anything else about a vehicle.

The M4/T26 was 6.0 from the start.

But it’s WT, there’s no logic.

Took the T20 to go from 5.0 to 6.3 to finally get APCR, even though it’s hardly useful.

the T25 was never good.

it used to be 5.7 AND have a stab. It was average at best. The stab got removed and it got moved up. no one knows why. Its constantly cited as one of the worst vehicles in the game.

At least it WAS middle of the road.
Now it’s not even half as useful.
And I also meant “good” as a somewhat broad term.
