[QUOTE="weatherbyfan0527, post: 2191327, member: 98501"] I have both. I haven't had a lot of luck with 25-06 accuracy in a couple different rifles (although, I am sure that's just a bad luck of the draw). 25-06 is a fine round. I've had three 257's that all shoot sub MOA with about anything you put through them. I have a stainless vanguard that has kinda become my pet go-to hunter. Its history is 7 for 7 on game with none requiring a follow up. 4 bears, 2 pronghorns and a mountain goat would all agree that it's a potent cartridge. :) FYI: 2 bears were under 100 yards, 2 bears were over 200 yards, both pronghorn were between 365 and 400 yards, and the goat was 340 yards..... so it's shown good performance at a fairly wide range of distances on animals from 90 to 275 pounds.... all with 115BT's.
