[QUOTE="Eric Alexander, post: 2191415, member: 89813"] 25-06 :: less expensive on all fronts, brass, amount of powder, easy to find off the shelf in a bind, not an overbore ,nearly the speed of the Weatherby without a belt, slick loader. The only reason to go with Wby is if you are really a freak for speed. Assuming that your are building the rifle, then get a barrel with a 1:7 twist so you can avail yourself of the new high BC bullets from Blackjack and Hammer.... and go with the 26”. All of the shelf .25 cal rifles are 1:10. New longer bullets won’t work in that slow twist. [/QUOTE]
