I recall reading Bob's article's on his use of the 25-06 not knowing I would have my own 25-06 fifteen years later. My new 25-06 replaced a run of 270's and wanted something with as little recoil as possible ( for my young son) yet as effective as the .270......the 25-06 does both.
Could not help but notice the 25-06 does kill a little quicker....like dead right there than my .270 experience. Actually, the difference between the two cartridges on deer size game is quite negligible.
