I’ve got a fairly new Savage 25-06. I want to say it’s 5 years old. So far I’ve found it likes 120 GameKings over 50.2 H4831SC. I don’t have my notebook handy right now but I do know they come out pretty darn fast. That makes me wonder if they will open up enough on a deer at shorter distance (under 350 yards). It’s quite accurate, giving me 3” groups at 600. Interestingly my electric ear muffs don’t reset before bullet hits steel at 600 like they do with my 270 or 30-06.
should I try RL22 and/or heavier bullets? I wish I could remember the twist rate
I wish I could help you out. But when it comes to reloading I know nothing.
