Awesome round, i was on a pretty nasty .25 caliber kick bout two years ago wound up snaggin an old .257 ackley improved, nice gun it was a mauser action, wound up selling it cuz i decided i didn't have the time to keep cookin up handloads for it with my buddy's press, will prob have another .25 next year, i think i'm goin .25-06 this time haha around 4k fps depending on load, id probably go 120gr Nosler Partitions for deer and something lighter and fun for yotes. Its a good dual purpose cartridge I think for Pa hunting.
