For sure, hard to beat for the reloader. I'd still go CM, limited to off the shelf rifle and ammo.

He just needs to find one factory load that will shot well in his .25/06 and he is in business. I counted 7 factory loads that feature a 100 grain bullet and I am sure one of those will shoot good enough in his rifle. wink

Our NM jackwabbits are a whole different ballgame. smile
