David,
I have a .257 AI which is about the same thing as the .25-06. I use the 87 gn. Serria bullets at 3,500 fps. for varmints. I`ve never hunted deer with it, but did loan it to a friend for antlope and he fired 1 shot with the 117 gn. Serria bullet and put down an antlope at abt 450 yrds. I know you can go by 1 shot, but it looks like the 117 Serrias work well on deer size game. I`m pretty sure the 87`s are to expolsive for deer.
