[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 2518927, member: 48043"] I've only shot one deer with a borrowed 25-06... I had a rifle jamb up on me years ago and popped a big mule deer doe with my Pop's rifle. It took one hit and went down with about zero loss. shoot them in the slats or neck and you don't loose much, no matter what howitzer you use. I've been using the 300win, 7rum, and 7stw for years. All are more damaging than a 25-06 if you have anywhere near poor placement. That said, there are some pills out there that are better off in lesser 25's and the lead free or 115-120 grain options are probably your best bet on critters you want to eat. [/QUOTE]
