[QUOTE="19elkhunter51, post: 2519821, member: 14169"] I also have been using a 25-06 for deer for over 30 years. Three years ago while hunting in Kansas, I shot four whitetail does (limit was five at that time). I shot three in the neck/head and the last one a slight quartering away shot. Shot went exactly where I wanted it but it took the offside front shoulder and turned it into a mess. Just cut it off and threw it away. I was shooting 117 grain Sierra Gameking bullets. I will echo the words of others before me, shot placement is the key. I am going to try some Barnes bullets in this rifle as I have had superb results with Barnes bullets in 30 caliber and 338 caliber. [/QUOTE]
