My response to what’s the attraction? Simply this, in my custom pre-64 Roberts I get 3050 FPS with the 115 Nosler Partition. I’d like to see the critter in the lower 48 I couldn’t harvest with that rifle and load!
I believe thats pretty accurate. When i was a teen i had an experiance with a big bull elk at 25-30yds using a 25-06 and Remington Core Lokts. Horrible experiance. Before at longer distances the little 25 took some huge mule deer and cow elk no problem. At rock throwing range it was inadequate. I wish i could relive that scenerio only having Nosler Partitions or todays copper monolithics. My ammo was some my grandpa had bought back in the early 70's.
