I have used this on elk ,moose and smaller game.This bolt action rifle has a 24" barrel-this I consider to long on any rifle for what I do.really like the idea of a single shot ( am experimenting witha ruger#1 7mm) at this time.What else is out there that fits this description? 24" barrel would be ok in this case I believe.Thanks( 22" does not seem adaquate for this round)

Tony - I agree with your assessment, anything shorter than a 24" barrel for the 25-06 is putting a great cartridge at a disadvantage and increasing muzzle blast instead. 26" barrel (as on many No. 1's) is even better to take full advantage of the capabilities inherent in this round.[b]
