[QUOTE="Buffalobob, post: 61829, member: 8"] As mentioned above, a fast 24 is lots of fun. Lots of good bullets. Enough energy to 500+ yards for deer. Low recoil. If you do not mind the cost of premium gas when you buy a vette then you will probably not mind the cost of weatherby brass for a 240 wby. So far the 240 wby brass seems to hold up better than the larger wby cases or maybe I just no longer squeeze the last fps out of my bullets. Try this = M98 action, douglas barrel, timmney trigger, fajen stock leopold VXIII 3.5X10. Some days I wish I had a 4X12 scope and some days a 2X7 but no days when I wish for a different caliber for what you are talking about- shooting deer crows , chucks, stupid snakes on a rock and other stuff out to 500yards. As far as the 25's, my brothers Steyr in 257Wby with only trivial work with handloads would go sub MOA. Nothing wrong with a 25-06. They load up easy and shoot good and kill deer and antelopes like nobodies business. [/QUOTE]
