[QUOTE="James Jones, post: 126371, member: 8843"] Brian , I have a buddy that shoots a 25-300Win mag and I have to tell ya its a n awsome round it'll flat smoke the 257Wby and run realy close to the 257STW depending on the throat and barrel length. My friend used Lapua brass and 115gr Nosler Ballistic tips and has great results on deer and hogs out to 600yds , it'll shoot alot farther but he doens't have the place to hunt that far. My vote goes to the 25-300Winmag ,better brass , slightly shorter OAL will allow you to play with seating depth a bit more and the barrel life might be a bit longer than the STW due to it using less powder. I'd also get it in one of the barrel makers that makes the 5R rifleing [/QUOTE]
