[QUOTE="340Wby-4-everything, post: 2308968, member: 47425"] I had issues with a 25-06 one yr and wound up antelope hunting with my 340. Killed 2 does at 250yds each. Both head shots and you'd have thought they were hit in the head by a pickup truck. Needless to say, they were drt (or should I say landed within 2 yds of where they were drt) Got rid of it, got 2 .264 win mags and just last yr bought another 25-06 as my primary prairie goat gun and haven't considered ever using the 340 on them again. Tried a 7mm STW one yr and was an inch or two forward onto the shoulder (260yds but most likely my fault) and basically lost the meat from both shoulders so sold it right after. 😅 Some times you can indeed have too much gun!😇 [/QUOTE]
