I went to town looking for a 25-WSSM & came home with a 25-06. From what I have been told the two rounds are ballistic twins.
The rifle is a Ruger M-77 Mark II, it has a Target grey barrel & grey laminated stock. This is a sporter rifle, not the big varmit rilfe.
I topped it with a Burris Fullfield II 4.5x14x42mm ballistic plex scope.
I took it to the range today & sighted it in. I used Federal Premium Vital-Shok 100grain Nosler Ballistic tip ammo. The first 5-shots were used to get the rifle where I wanted it to be at 100-yards. I cleaned the rifle & shot a 3-shot group at a new target. The 3-shot group measured 3/4" at 100-yards. I think I am going to like this rifle. When I have time this winter, I will find a good handload for it.
I bought this rifle because I wanted a light weight carry rifle for deer & antelope hunting. With the right bullets it should also make a good(coyote/fox) varmit rifle.
