[QUOTE="Koda_, post: 2450392, member: 121268"] This is the crossroad I am at in life with my hunting and shooting path. My 25-06 is old and now needs a new barrel, but has been an incredible caliber for me and been a workhorse putting game on the table so I am sticking with it. Ive been wanting to hunt and shoot farther with it as my shooting skills are improving, and your right without the option Im limiting my potential to the standard cartridge even if its just a little less. What I am seeing with ballistic calculator estimations a minor 100fps advantage translates to an additional 100yds terminal velocity range. Generally speaking and all other things being equal of course. I dropped my rifle off at my gunsmith this weekend and went over my options. I still have time to change my mind as he begins to see what blanks he can get for me for him to finish, (we are hoping in time for fall). I did tell him to go AI but yeah part of me is cautious if Im making things more difficult for me since Id be committed to learning to reload for it with virtually no load data available. [/QUOTE]
