I had preferred barrel blanks screw a 1:7.5 twist 25-06 barrel onto an old Remington LA I had at hand for my son’s graduation present.

I freaking love that thing. I can see having it done again real soon. Barrel is 23”, and from memory I think we’re running the 133 Bergers at 2950 with Retumbo. He killed an elk and a nice pronghorn with it this year at 500+ yards.

Simply a great, all-purpose rifle/chambering imho.

If you're not burning through batteries in your headlamp,...you're doing it wrong.
