ORIGINAL: James B

One other point I would make on the two and will be widely disagreed with is that the 25-06 will drive 25 grain bullets to about their best peak performance. With the exception of the Barnes X bullets, many 25 caliber bullets get pretty fragil at speeds much above what the 25-06 is capable of driving them.
Ok you lost me here. Maybe its just a typo but I never heard on a 25 grain bullet in 25 cal. For varmits most use hollow pt. bullets around the 90 grain range.
