I'm trying to warm up to 25-06, but we haven't rounded first base yet.
I enjoy quarter-bores in the form of 250-3000, but limit them to varmint loads. I live in the northeast where 200yds is a WAY long shot.
But I just can't see where a 25-06 does anything a 270 won't do. What am I missing?
My .25-06 has proven itself a tremendously effective hunting rifle. Easily my favorite.
But... If I'd already owned a .270, I wouldn't have bothered. They're so close to the same thing... Fast .257 vs fast .277 - not much difference in reality.
