I will be using my Savage Mdl 111 in 25-06 for the first timeone week from today. I will be shooting Remington 100 gr Coreloks. I'll let you know how it does. This rifle prints well on paper and I can't wait to hunt with it.

I personaly wouldnt reccomend 100 gr for the 25's, sectional density suffers in that gr. go with 115.

I have a rem. bdl in 25-06 that I have had for years, and love it. I shoot the rem core-locks in 120 grain. 1 inch groups at 100 yards. Dropped a doe this year at 260 yards. Highly remcommend the caliber. My son also got his first deer with it this year, nice little 8 point buck. So recoil is low enough even for him, (11 years old). hope this helps.

I've used the 25-06 and 7mm-08 to take deer. The 25-06 is a flat shooting gun, and no problems at all. Now, for the 7mm-08. It is an awesome round as far as I'm concerned. Just picked one up this year, handload for it, and its awsome. So far this year, 3 doe, one piggie and a 12-point have all fell to it. All one shot....One doe was ranged at 175 yards, aimed straight on and went straight to the ground....
