[QUOTE="kraigwy, post: 232631, member: 12597"] I don't have nor have used a 25-06. I like the concept but I really like my 257 Roberts. I also like the 270, I just got a new Win Mod 70 Featherweight in 270. I lucked out in as much the wood on the 270 is almost a perfect match to my Featherweight in 257. Personally I think the 257 Rbts is a bit light for elk, thats why I got the 270. Now for the 25-06. I heard rumers that someone has started making a 130 grn bullet in 257. If thats true, then I think the 25-06 would be a perfect replacement for both the Roberts and 270. Assuming the barrel twist was available for the 130 Grn. Of course this is speculation on my part, If one could only have one (which would really suck) then I think the 25-06 would be perfect. I have several Big Guns but in reality, in the lower 48 I don't seen any reason for anything bigger the the 270. (Don't tell my wife I said that). [/QUOTE]
