Loading for the .25-06

Just last week I began loading for the .25-06. My Christmas gift to me is a Savage Tactical Rifle in a Plaster Sniper Stock with bipod and 4X-12X-40MM scope. I picked up some RCBS dies and am loading Hornady 117 grain SPBT bullets ahead of IMR 4350 powder and CCI primers.

I fired my first test batch last Saturday when it was 45 degrees and sunny. I zeroed the scope and got some nice groups. I did not go to the backyard bench today because it was 7 degrees, and windy with a chill factor of -10 degrees.

I loaded up more test batches of 87 grain Remington HP bullets and 117 Hornadys with H4350 powder. If anyone has a "pet" .25-06 load with H4350 or IMR 4350, please advise me.
