OP,
Went through trying times with my 6.5 Swede using some bullets highly regarded
by others. Unbelievable misses, unrecoverable hit deer. A Schmidt show rodeo,
one doe. Went lighter, softer, deer die better now.

Only 25-06 experience is loading some 117gr BT Speers for a friend.
He claims good, quick kills.
