Love my 25-06. The only downfall is finding ammo at times. You can always buy ammo online but if you happen to forget ammo on a trip sometime you may have trouble finding ammo.

Thanks, guys. Im stoked about the gun but NO ONE has it in stock. It is even hard to find if you try ordering it. Looks like I will be waiting a while

i love my 25-06. excellent on deer with minimal recoil.I took a 275lb boar back in december. dropped it in its tracks. 115gr ballistic silvertips are the best bullets for it in my opinion. i want to try the 110gr accubonds but they are kinda hard to find. i know sportsmans warehouse carries them but not bass pro. my 25-06 is a ruger m77 hawkeye and i got it chrismas 2007 so i have only had it for 1 full hunting season. took 3 deer and a hog this year.

My newest rifle is my 25-06 (2 years old)and I havent picked up another one since I got this one, In the last couple years I have put several animals down with the biggest being a 250lb Sika buck and the Sika didnt go 20 steps... Good round, My wife and 8 year old daughter both shoot this rifle....
