30yrs ago I owned a 25-06. It was the first gun I reloaded for. My best reloads were 5 shot groups @ around 1.25'. A friend, who owned a gunshop, gave me some 25-06 Federal Premium Game Kings to try. Darn, if the first 5 shot geoup wasn't just under an inch. If you're buying loaded ammo, Id hunt with Federal Premium Partitions and practice with the Gamekings. I've no experience nor knowledge of the 25-06 Fusions, but hear great things about them in other calibers. capt david
FWIW, if you have access to a chrony, I sold my 25-06 before I got one, You might check your speeds. The factory spects are usually pretty 'generous' if you have a22inch barrel, as much as 150fps slower. dp
