If you had to choose between these three for mule deer, which would it be? 7mm.Rem.Mag, 257 Wby Mag. and 25-06. I know that there are plenty others out there that will work, just curious about these three. 25-06. BMT

25-06 would be pretty hard to beat. Ive got one but have yet to take it hunting.

Since 270 Win isn't one of the choices, I would opt for the 7 RM. Lou

Personally, I'd go with the 7mm Rem Mag. Hey, I like a good 25-06, but I like the versatility of the 7 more. IMHO, very hard to beat anything in .284 caliber.
