Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Your favorite 25-06 hunting rifle and why???

I've had some good times over the years with this 25-284 with #2 contour 23" PN barrel that I did about 18-20 years ago. Generally shooting 100's at 3,350 with RL17. Several folks have killed their first deer with it, as recoil is nice and it is "point and shoot" for around here. Pretty much same/same as a 25-06. If I was doing it over today, I would likely lean 6/6.5mm for the bullet choices we now have.




It has worn several scopes over the years, and I think it has the first McMillan I ever purchased, a used MR pattern from the 'Fire.
