In this Day and Age of exceptional barrels and uniform boolit jackets,everything shoots exceptionally well and that is a given. That being said,Precision is but a single facet of the beeg picture...though there ain't too many folks who like Precision more than I.
There's no way I'd drive a 25-06 over a 243Win today,due simply to the disparity in their respective boolits. The 6mm's are far more slickery,will slip conditions better and do so in a shorter action,burning less powder and with lower ES/SD(vertical),while happily housed in a 2.8" box.
Though in fairness,I cain't know anyone with more 25's in their larder,than I...but it's 243 for the win.
Hint.
