well first i should clarify im not considering it for my 25/06. i simply used that to illustrate my question.
i am however considering it for a 6.5x06. my son and several friends have standard 6.5/06s. i would be rebarreling
a 700 rem which i own. so rebarreling will happen regardless and no doubt with an 8 twist. decision for me is barrel
legnth and wether or not ai. in any event it wont be less than 24". id not hesitate on 26" if the ai would make that worthwhile.
i will be using the heaviest bullets that shoot well in the gun, hopefully 140s. i recently sold a 6.5 wsm which id built on a savage
and owned for 4 hunting seasons. im not looking at duplicating those velocities. im looking for something i like better and the 06
case looks as though it would work for me.
