[QUOTE="rscott5028, post: 667828, member: 24624"] 25-06 is a great cartridge. 6.5x284 is better than 25 cal due to high BC bullets. My kids have killed plenty of deer with both. Recoil is about the same. But, I'm a fan of muzzle brakes on most rifles anyway. 260 Rem is pretty close to 6.5x284. 260 and 25-06 are pretty comparable if you're using factory ammo. ...and, 6.5x284 has limitted availability. Hence, 260 Rem is a good choice since you have the option of factory ammo as well as ability to handload for LRH. There are lots of other great cartridges out there too. -- richard [/QUOTE]
