[QUOTE="VLD Pilot, post: 2602039, member: 103947"] My choice for going to a 25-284 was due to the High BC 131/133/135 bullets. I shoot a 6.5-284 using the 140s and the 257 caliber with 130 class bullets is faster, flatter and will hit harder downrange with less recoil. This intrigued me enough to build one for Wyoming antelope hunting. I'd say the heavier 140-156 grain 6.5 bullets are excellent for bigger deer and up but for antelope and whitetails, the 130 class bullets are an excellent choice in the .257 caliber. I think your initial 25CM choice for her is spot on. [/QUOTE]
