[QUOTE="willfrye027, post: 2637058, member: 114992"] I’ve so far done 25-06, 25 creedmoor, and 25-284. Now I only have the 25 creedmoor. The 135gr Berger at 2950fps to me is a perfect balance. You can squeeze more velocity from a larger case, but you’re getting more recoil, less barrel life, (in my experience) a more finicky tune. I have killed out to 670 with the 25 creedmoor and it has plenty of OOMPH at that distance. Much farther is out of my personal shooting ability, so the extra velocity from a larger case is pointless for me. Lots to consider and probably no bad choices..but look hard at the creedmoor case.
