25-06 Ammo
Many hunters enjoy using the .25-06 Remington to bring down their quarry. Lighter-kicking than its parent (the .30-06 Springfield) yet more than powerful enough to take deer and antelope, this caliber delivers flat trajectories great for long-range shots.
Typical specs for .25-06 ammo include a 100-120 grain bullet (varmint loads will be lighter) fired at about 3,000 feet per second. Soft point projectiles like the Federal Power-Shok offer good expansion without destroying meat, while hollow points can turn this round into an overkill varmint cartridge.
Bolt-action rifles are the usual platform for this caliber because they offer excellent accuracy potential and superb mechanical reliablity.

Prvi Partizan 25-06 Rem 100 Grain PSP - 20 Rounds
$25.85Product Type Ammo Manufacturer Prvi Partizan Condition New Bullet Weight 100 Grain Bullet Type Soft-Point (SP) Use Type hunting boar, hunting whitetail deer Casing Type Brass Quantity 20 Ammo Caliber 25-06 Manufacturer SKU PP2506P Primer Type Boxer Magnetic No UPC Barcode 8605003800491 Cost Per Round $1.29 per round Whether you're completely new to the .25-06 Remington cartridge or have been loyal to the former wildcat for decades, you'll find that this modern ammunition allows you to reach out to intermediate hunting distances without the trouble of handloading. This ammo is made by Prvi Partizan, a Serbian organization that started business in 1928 and has since gone out of their way to support popular, yet obscure ammunition in Europe in the U.S. Locally, their boxes are associated with dependable performance and fair prices.
This .25-06 caliber load is topped with a 100-grain pointed soft point (PSP) bullet which has a minimally exposed lead tip sitting atop a sleek, jacketed ogive. The aerodynamic shape of the bullet not only slices through the air but allows for deep penetration into deer and other medium-sized game. After striking a target, the bullet's naked point will produce gradual expansion, causing the round to deposit its energy in an animal and drop it with quick efficiency. Each bullet is crimped into a reloadable brass casing and propelled by modern propelled that is ignited by a clean-sparking Boxer primer.
