Buy a Vanguard 2 .257 Wby. I paid $425 for mine with one of the decent stocks on it. In my opinion, if I did anything to a .25-06 it would be to make it an Ackley. The cost of anything else weighted against the cost of the V2 does not really justify the conversion unless it is just something you want. In my opinion, the .257 WBY is a much flatter cartridge than the .25-06. I have both. You can make the WBY scream.
