Hi Andy,

Have you thought about the .257 Roberts cartridge? seems a fine Deer cartridge in a more effecient compact package than the 25-06, velocity does not seems much difference in them. Or another favorite is the 6.5x55 Swedish cartridge, Boy there is a wide selection of bullets for the 6.5x55 and the Encore is available in this chambering. A fellow from another site uses one a lot and has great success with it. The 6.5 cartridge is fully capable of taking Moose and Elk cleanly with the 160 grn bullets

Have fun with your shopping
