[QUOTE="jarnold37, post: 2122666, member: 29241"] My first rifle I started experimenting with different bullets and loads and the effect on deer was a 25-06. The 120 grain was a bit disappointing and I finally came to the conclusion that the 87 grain Sierra was by far for me,the best bullet in the 25-06. Shot many deer out to 445 yards and didnt seem to be very critical for shot placement. A 10 year old boy shot his first deer at 190 yards and got shot and killed it. Worse mess of any deer I have ever seen. Have moved up to bigger cartridges over the years. Even 338-378 shooting 300 grain. But mostly use 30-378 with 125 grain. Just like the 25-06 but a little bit more range with same effect. [/QUOTE]
