Default Reloading the 25-06

After sitting in the gun cabinet for 20 years, I'm finally brining the old 25-06 out of retirement. I's a Remington M700 BDL in a custom thumbhole stock.

What loads do you guys have the most luck with? I ordered a box of 115 grain Barnes TSX bullets as that's what I would like to use.

The reason this rifle sat so long is that is was VERY finicky. It could shoot one brand of factory ammo into one hole. Everything else I've ever tried was horrible. Like, 6 inch groups. If I can't get these Barnes bullets to group, it may go back into the cabinet.
