I agree. I have more 25/06's then any other caliber I shoot now. I never realized that till I just considered it. Great round as a reloader but I admit that 6mm and 7mm bullets are cheaper.

If I were to just pick one today, I would go 7/08. My 7/08 is a good accurate round and off the shelf ammo is readily available.

22/250 would be my second choice for a non-reloader.

As a reloader, I do them all. I just prefer my 25/06's.
