[QUOTE="56Wrecker, post: 891632, member: 67252"] [B]Grant A[/B], Fully understand. I have done considerable handloading myself. A faster powder would be, I think, NECESSARY in a short-barrel rifle. There are numerous SHORT cartridges (with heavier bullets that have excellent ballistic-coefficients) that would be MUCH BETTER choices than 25-06 in a short-barrel rifle. I happen to [I]FAVOR [/I]the 7mm projectile for those reasons. 30 caliber is also good....MANY choices of bullets [B]!!! [/B]( and BETTER "knock-down" POWER. ) An Uncle of mine killed MANY Big-Game (including Elk, Moose, and Caribou) with a [B]300 Savage [/B]lever-action. A "smaller cartridge" [U]WITH[/U] PUNCH [B]![/B] Good Luck with YOUR choice [B]![/B] [B]---[/B]56Wrecker--- [/QUOTE]
