If you use a 2506 on a squirrel there wont be a squirrel left. Just a bit of hair and hide will be all that's left.
Yep, I will admitt the idea of using a 25-06 for squirrels is more humor that anything. I plan on using .25-06 (or .223) for coyotes. My brother did shoot a crow once with his 270 at about 100 yards. The crow turned out to be a magician. He disappeared in a puff of feathers
