shuller70 Report post Posted December 17, 2014 I plan on shooting coyotes with it maybe make it a close range deer gun depending on how it shoots Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lancetkenyon Report post Posted December 17, 2014 Why just a "close range" deer rifle? These are a hammer on even the big mulies out to 700-800 yards if they shoot well and hit where you want them to. Three weeks ago, I was shooting 1350+ yards with my .25-06 Ackley with regular .25-06 Rem fire firming loads. Very accurately I might add. And hit hard enough to hear the "whack" on impact. I am sure a few others will chime in on their love for the .25-06 too. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shuller70 Report post Posted December 18, 2014 Yeah good round but when you compare to a 280 Ai and I am shooting a 150 grain bullet the same speed or faster as 25-06 117 just not my cup of tea when I have better blastics with the 280 ai. So that is what my option on it the energy retention is just not there from the 25-06. But I like the fact that I could shoot under 80 grains and getting as fast my 22-250. Shot that is what I am kinda leaning to Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lancetkenyon Report post Posted December 18, 2014 It will SMOKE coyotes. I used to run 85gr. Nosler Varmint BTs in mine for coyotes. I also tried some 75gr. Sierra Varminters. Just load some 115gr Berger VLDs and you will have a great backup deer rifle for your hunts. You won't be sorry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I shoot Winchester 120gr positive expanding points that like some distance before expanding. Shot a small muley a few years back at about 60 yards and the bullets went too fast to open up good. The deer in my avatar was de-lunged at 300 yards. Looked like it was shot by that shoulder laser on The Predator. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
