Daym!

Have watched several hundred in Wyoming this week but have never killed one. However, if I ever had the opportunity I would probably use 25/06

I bought one last year and am well pleased. I have it on a 6.5 CM and tracking is excellent out to 1000 yds

Guy sorry for your loss. I have a very similar story. My dad passed away almost 2 years ago at the age of 92. He as well was a WW2 veteran passing away fittingly on Nov 11, 2020. He lived a good life up until about 2 months before his passing. He took his last deer at the age of 90 and his last...

Another vote for 165

I’ve had a couple X7’s myself in the past . One a 308 the other a 7-08. They were very finicky but if you found what they liked they would shoot.

Looks quite possible that the Norma Bondstrike is a rebranded ELD-X or at least built for Norma by Hornady

Noah, I just had a custom 25/06 built with a 1/7 twist 24” barrel on a Model 70 action. I worked up a load last week almost identical to what you ask except I used IMR 4831, 115 gr NBT, Hornady brass, CCI 200, 52.0 grs , 3080 fps , .775” group. While it shot the 117-110 gr bullets well, it...

Another vote for the BL22. But my Ruger 77/22 SS is a very close second

I’ve got several long range rifles that I actively practice with and hunt with. Almost any deer caliber 25 cal that can shoot moa can be set up to kill deer out to 600 yds. I have several rigs that I have taken deer out to 500 plus yards including 6.5x55, 270 Win, 7 REM Mag, 7 Wea mag, 30/06...
