Sierra Manual, Fifth Edition has 25-06AI Data

My load is 125Wildcat ULD with Rem. brass, CCI Mag Primers & RL25. The Sierra manual shows 56gr. as max with 120gr. bullet. Start
under that 15% or so & work up slowly. I am getting 3,250FPS with this load, but the charge may be hot in some & I should not give the charge.

Also, you can start barely under 25-06 max in other manuals & work up SLOWLY & you will be safe as long as you know how to watch for pressure & then watch.
You will not make peace with the Bluecoats, you are free to go.
