How do you like this Cal compared to the regular 25-06 ? I love the short action.

I love my 25WSSMs. But if you get one, better stock up on ammunition, or brass if you're a reloader.
Also, it's hard to match the 25/06 velocities with reloads. Winchester loads factory Ammo pretty hot. The case capacity of the WSSM is closer to a 257AI than the 25/06.

Don't think the case cares. I like 120s for deer.

My son received for high school graduation from his grand-dad. Likes the accuracy and consistency. Primarily used the 120 grn with his. Downside has been ammo availability and cost. Good news is his grand-dad will reload for him.
