I have a Ruger #1 in 25-06. I shoot the same Hornady ELDX bullets with good results. Shot two does so far. One dropped on the spot. The other ran about 50 yards on a death run.
I’ve got around a dozen deer and antelope with my savage 25-06, crazy accurate and stone cold killer with 117 SSTs. I’m thinking of replacing the Tupperware stock sometime soon.
