I was recently talking with a friend about the 25-06 and the 308 and the recoil with both shooting mild loads.
308 shooting 125 gr bullets and 25-06 shooting 87 gr loads
I don’t have the exact loads in front of me (we are packing up to move so alot is in boxes) but will find and post them
How comparable is the recoil of the 25-06 to the 308 ?
I know one is short action and one long action, I was wondering if the 25-06 would be to much for my wife and daughter with out having them shoot it and being scared of the recoil. They both shoot the 308 with out issues but if they go hunting the same time they both want to have a gun.
The guns are both Tikka T3 lites 308 is a compact, 25-06 is regular length that I have compact and regular stock for.
Thanks in advance
Dan
