[QUOTE="Raudy707, post: 1954919, member: 105681"] I've killed a half dozen bulls with my 25-06 but always used the 120 grain partition and the 115 tsx. I mostly shoot deer and antelope with the 115 Berger vld but wouldn't want to risk it on a big heavy bull elk. 110 Accubond or 120 grand slam would be other good options. No shots were over 400 yds and all were on relaxed feeding animals with favorable shot angles. They took a few steps then fell over. 2 dropped on impact. I shot them in the neck just in front of the shoulder. I haven't moved up much in caliber these days. I use a 270 wsm with 170 Berger EOL'S and 160 grain Partition's. 257 Wby will work fine. [/QUOTE]
