[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 2996233, member: 48043"] Stubby bullets in rifles don't tend to do well over distance. They slow down like they have a parachute on and get blown around by any real wind. I run mid weight and heavy bullets in rifles. It's fun to run a 120gr. 7mm at 4K fps but when you can't hit squat with it past a couple hundred yards it's useless. I've got plenty of pistols if I want to play around with stubby bullets at short range. As far as 25-06 vs. 30-06 the answer is either... I've killed with both and both poke holes in stuff. I am partial to 7mm's and 30's though. [/QUOTE]
