[QUOTE="Darryl Cassel, post: 3233, member: 34"] Hello QH Nice horses in the pics on the other post. Are they yours? The reason I went with the 270 and 280 over the 25/06 is the better bullets available in the two. I like the heavier 130,140 and 150 in the 270 and the 162, 168 & 180 in the 7mm or 280 round. The 25/06 kills fine with bullets of 100 to 120 gr, but the limitation or lack of better, heavier, higher BC bullets, for the 25 cal. has always puzzled me. I just feel the 270 or 280 (7mm) has some advantages over the 25. We are on the same thoughts concerning the 338 Win mag though. Just my .02 DC PS---I do have a 25/06 and a 25 Gibbs for comparison.
