Greetings,
I am considering purchasing a used LH Savage 110 in 25-06 Rem caliber. The rifle would be used to complement my existing rifle battery which includes Ruger M77 Mark II in 30 06 and Winchester Model 70 also in 30 06 caliber.
I understand that 30 06 is a versatile caliber. Would I be better served just loading 150 grain 30 06 bullets and dispense with purchasing another rifle? My hunting experience with 30 06 in RSA has solely involved 180 grain bullets. Besides being a novelty, I have heard the 25 06 might be better for mountain sheep hunting given its flatter ballistic trajectory. I just don't know that much about shooting lighter bullets in the Ruger M77.
