With heavies the edge goes to the big 6 by a fair margin on paper at least. Real world...not much till you get out there a ways. When I was waiting on my 6-06 build I bought a basic Rem 700 SPS to play with and hunt with as for some reason I had a 6mm bug. My kids also shot a couple of youth model .243s and my brother shoots a 1:10 Howa that loves the 95 Berger. The critters in the pics fell to a mix of 85 TSX and 100 sgk from in your lap close to about 400 yards. The factory twist rate is a handicap but within typical ranges I see no flies on the standard .243.

You've got the atmosphere,to REALLY let schit breathe and stretch it's legs. A scope that actually steers bullets,would blow your mind. Hint..............

I sold my long barreled remington but still have my sons 18.5" youth model that seems to shoot most bullets well and generally produces very good velocities before hitting pressure. Will be interesting to see if we can wake it up with a 105 Hornady and some '17. He has been wanting to play a little further than his current load will allow.

Just gawking through the windshield gets it to the 1225yd line. Stays supersonic to the 1400yd line. 10mph full value at 1225yds,is but halfa reticle at 2.5 Mils. You'll blow your own mind on the first fhuqking shot and will learn more on your first outing,than evrything you know now. Straight up Game CHANGER. Everything you think is "good" know,you will fhuqking hate,after having seen the light.(grin) "Toldjaso" wayyyyyyyy in advance. Thank me later. hint..................

So if a guy only needs to go to 500 yards then the 25-06 would also be easy mode to get there. “If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world.” Tolkien

RMiller2 Campfire Regular R Joined: Dec 2010 Posts: 1,451 Likes: 3 Montana	This is the chart for the 110 ELD-X in factory fodder. I adjusted for 225 yards. Trajectory Results RANGE (YDS) TOTAL COME UP (IN) 0 +1.37 100 -1.62 200 -0.88 300 +4.46 400 +15.11 500 +31.98 As you can see ALMOST means its actually a little flatter to the range I mentioned. Sorry for facts upsetting you so. I only mentioned this in this thread because the thread is actually about the 25-06. My only intention is to point out that a 25-06 with 110 ELD-X would fit in this scenario as well, to 500 yards anyways. I am also glad you let your true colors come out so the poster doesn't become fooled into thinking your a person of reputable sources. Not sure why you are bringing up the 22 Creed as I did not see mention of gophers anywhere in this thread.
