[QUOTE="Mike Matteson, post: 2107952, member: 101791"] I or between my sons and I, we have 4 25-06's We used MRP powder. I used 120 grs noslers (they don't build that any longer) in my 22" 721 Rem. It was good for an easy 500yds on deer, and antelope. Taken both at that range. I would look at 115grs or 117grs. bullets. In my estimation it's a little small for elk. You will find MRP info in the Norma Reloading Manual. If you are going to shot copper bullets, I would turn the twist up. If you are going to change out barrels I would look at 25-06AI chamber will kick it up in velocity some. The case can be made from 270's, and 30-06 cases, if needing or wanting to, to get brass to reload with. [/QUOTE]
