[QUOTE="RT2506, post: 401463, member: 10178"] You can't go wrong with a Nosler partition for most any game. They have been doing the job on game for ages. The only Accubond bullet I have used on game is the 130 .264 in my 264 Win mag. It is THE do it all bullet as far as I am concerned in this rifle. As for Speer bullets the only one I would suggest for elk would be the 120 Grand Slam. I have never killed an elk but I have taken deer with the 120 Grand Slam out of a 25-06 and found that it is a really tough bullet. Really too tough for the average size white tail deer. Even at a close range of 50 yards with a MV of 3000 fps I shot a big buck in the chest and on cutting up the meat I found the bullet in the ham just under the hide after it had shattered the ball joint. The bullet was a text book mushroom and weight was 87 grs. If I had to hunt elk with my 25-06 that would be the bullet I would use because it shoots so well in my rifle. I would put one in the lungs first. [/QUOTE]
