[QUOTE="SBruce, post: 692202, member: 21068"] +1, Agree, what he said:) A good friend is using HSM Berger VLD factory ammo in his 25-06, and gets groups no bigger than moa at 600 yds, his smallest was 7/8" at 500 yds believe it or not. Even the big groups are within a few inches of point of aim at 600, so no reason not to use it providing broadside shots. I've had best luck (factory ammo wise, 223, 243 and 25-06) with Federal premium, Black Hills, and Hornady Match. Nosler Custom doesn't shoot bad either, in my limited experience with it. I used the A-Max bullets last year, not long range but on small deer. Pretty explosive at 300 yds and under, probably not a big problem with lung shots....still got complete pass through, just alot of blood shot tissue. [/QUOTE]
