RE: .25-06 ammo
For factory loads, I am shooting the Hornady light magnum 117 grain. The handloads are either 100 grain speer or 120 grain speer hotcore. They reach a long ways, and kill like lightening. I have found over the years, that a 25 06 prefers to be loaded fairly hot, and that the 100 grain is extremely accurate.

RE: .25-06 ammo
Gamekings are great game bullets. I've killed more hogs with Gamekings in my .223 than any other bullet. They have never failed.
As for me, I've tried Accubonds, but haven't had good luck with them so far. I'm working up some more loads, and trying some more bullets, but so far the 75 grain Hornady V-max's have been the most accurate. I shoot mostly coyotes with the .25-06 anyway, and they work great for that.
