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 brother has a 25-06 and my son a .270. I've seen multiple deer killed with both and can't see a nickels worth of difference. If I'm going long action I'll still take a .30-06 over either. For my own deer hunting here in NY I'll take my .243 or .30-30 over any of them.
