    Burning up your barrel with a round thats badly wind affected makes no sense.

    The "flat shooting" thing being a myth because punch it into a ballistics calculator and you will see the projectiles inneficiency is more important than the high muzzle velocity.

    If there was a projectile around the 115-120gr mark with a BC of .6 then 25-06 would be shit hot. There is no reason why one could not be made.

    What's the point of a hugely over bore short range chambering?
