I use the Walker ear enhancement ear pieces that fit in my ear and block out gunshots. They let me hear the deer and protect my hearing. Why don't you try those?

I have them both and it comes down to a simple fact. If you were going to shoot it a lot then I would go with the 25'06. If you're just going to have it and hunt with it once in a while, I like the 257 Weatherby, it will out perform the 25'06 for sure on deer and antelope. If anything...

The Ruger #1 is a fun rifle to shoot and looks very good. If accuracy is not up to what you need, there is a cheap fix that floats the forearm. It's called a "forearm hanger" and is available online at several places. Even that liberal California Communist auction place. So if you like the...
