Been using a Remington Sendero in .25-06 for deer since 1999. I like Winchester cases ,as they hold more powder than other brands, with a Winchester Large Rifle primer. The powder that has given the highest velocity has been H4831. I first used Nosler 115gr. Partitions and they shot about 3/4''at 100yds. Next I tried Nosler 115gr. Balistic Tips and the groups were closer to 1/2'' at 100yds. Shot maybe 15 deer out to 275yds. and never had one go more than 20yds. It was easy to get 3100f.p.s. out of the Sendero's 26'' barrel.

My favorite for hunting is probably 51.5 grains of RL22 Fed GM210M primer and a 110 Accubond. Should get you about 3100 fps and has shot extremely well in two rifles of mine.
