[QUOTE="del2les, post: 1789224, member: 9299"] Yes. For several decades, I've used the caliber on many things small and large up to and including elk. During the 90's, I even used a 26" varmint barrelled 25-06 loaded with 85NBT's being pushed by Norma MRP @ 3,600fps to make the 1,000 yard club in coyote (1 shot) and P-dog (3rd shot). Back in the day and using the old Barnes 85g X in one 26", I loaded it over top of IMR-4831 to a "very warm" 3,750fps, and it was a laser to 400yds or so on whitetails. More recently, the 80gr TTSX loads over 3,800fps and expands better than the old X, but now, I mostly use the 110AB's @ 3,300fps [/QUOTE]
