Nice shooting!!! I too enjoy my custom built 25-06!!!!! Springfield 03A3 action, 26", 1:10 twist, Douglas #5-1/2 medium varmint contour, with Custom walnut thumbhole stock with rose wood forearm cap and accent stripes!!! Mounted a Leupold 6.5-20x44 gold ring target (with turrent caps) with duplex reticles!!!!! I use the Sierra 117 grain SBT Gamekings!!! Have taken whitetail clear out to 574yds (5x5 heart shot)!! Wileys out to 700!!!! IT'S HARD TO BEAT AN ACCURATE 25-06!!!! Even taking PDs at 500 to 600 yards!!!!!!!!!!

That sure looks like the Royal Arms stock I had years ago except mine was laminated.

The stock is a Fagen XX Deluxe (some fiddle back)! They were out of the XXX Deluxe (fiddle back Walnut in the thumbholes)!!! I need to strip and refinish the stock!!! The old finish is yellowing!!!

Sweet rifle Eric, wish I had gotten that green stock from Alex Wheeler. Mine is kinda blah in a grey/ burgundy. Your green is just like my 6br/20 Dasher/17ppc. Will definitely have to paint it, they track beautifully though.

Suckers a lazer, Alex built it as an 8 twist 6 BRA for 600 yard but I had 13.5 twist 6 PPC barrel out on and shoot it in UBR UL class.

100 deer since 1978? In Idaho you'd likely be behind bars for poaching... How do you get so many tags?

I went to TWRA website and looked and from 2005-2007 I killed 25 after that the kids started filling the freezer and I quit shooting them ,, 2005 is as far back is it keeps records ,,

it’s an A prefix 700 BDL Daddy bought me around 78 give or take,, it’s a 26” #3 Bartlien 10 twist stainless steel. I had the whole thing cerakoted in Midnight blue that’s really more of a flat black.
