Default RE: 25-06

MYKEY. How does that combo do for meat damage? Being a 99 percent meat hunter, I have been looking for a load that keeps it down to a minimum. I am having the trigger done on mine right now which should help my shot placement. The triger was a tough six LBs on it before. The smith says he can get it down to three. I know from useing the 7MM mag years ago that shot placement will save more meat than anything. I used to use the Hot Care in my 280 but it did a lot of excess damae as well. One thing for sure, when you hit them with the 25-06, they are going to go down.
