I used to be a .25 fan. I lost a good buck well hit with a .25-'06. I found the carcass a few days later still intact enough to determine entry/exit points. It should have been DRT, or within 40-50 yards anyway, it should not have gone full-steam over a ridge 400 yards away. I lost a lot of confidence in the smaller calibers right there.

Sounds like you had insufficient bullet performance, not an insufficient cartridge! wink

I had a 25-06 and it liked Hornady 120 Hollow Points and they blew all the way through whitetails with ease, I am confident they would do the same on mulies.
