25-06
My longest shot(on a groundhog) was a bit over 475 yds..Buty I considered it pure luck..longest on big game(antelope was approx 450 yds. It was not luck. The 25-06 is usually a very accure cartridge(i've had 3) and have just acquired a new 700 BDL in the caliber. Haven't shot it yet. The fellow I got it from had one of the plug screws break off and can't be gotten out. Think I'm gonna take it to Larry and see if he can get it out. Then I have an old Redfield 4x12 AO scope or an ugly(purple) Leupold 12x I can put on it. We'll see how she shoots. I even have ammo and cases here. Lots of bullets to try....and some of the old surplus 4831 from Hodgdon(my favorite powder in the the 25-06).
