I love me some 25-06! So pleasant to shoot, flat trajectory, and great long range performance.

I have a 25 06 in Sako A7 soft touch. I love that rifle for deer. It's mild recoil and speed are very attractive features of the caliber.

I've shot a lot of deer in Eastern Montana with the 25-06 using 117 grain Hornaday interlock. Out of 25 animals only 2 took a step.

The advertised velocities on the boxes actually did not lie, or even bend the truth. I'm impressed.👍🏻

I think the difference in velocities is due to different ammo makers exaggerating more or less than one another.

Honestly I did alot of research before I purchase my first rifle and it was the 270 Winchester and I'm very impressed with its performance. I've taken a elk and 2 deer with it and it also did a bunch of target shooting with it and it surprises me every time. My rifle is a Winchester xpr with the vortex crossfire 2 combo.

Really good and often overlooked calibers. I lived in Wyoming for awhile and those 2 and the 7mm Rem. Mag. were very popular calibers.

These days, a guy could make a video of latex paint drying on a fence post and RU-vid would attach two commercials to it.

Jack O'Connor was one of the first to write about the 270 Winchester and love it and you won't be the last one to show just how good it is. The 25-06 is good just never had someone to push it like the 270 did. Neat video.👍👍

Love my 25-06. Extremely comfortable shooting from a tree stand even with awkward shots to the side.

Have dropped deer as if struck by lighting with.270 Winchester, have many other rifles, 30- 30, 45-70, 30-06 etc, but power, flat trajectory, and little recoil makes the 270 my favorite

Both are excellent,i hunt here in south africa got a .270 dropped everything including eland no probs with the right shot placement,velocity is always good here on the plains but the .270 just hits harder love both though,gr8 vid👌

My 25-06 has been my go to for whitetails for the past 10 years. Great gun.

I have only ever hunted with my 1971 Remington 25-06 using Hornady 117 grain ammo. Biggest buck I have taken went less than 20 yards after shot. I love that gun!

Been waiting for the 25/06 on the chronograph. Thanks for the videos and stay safe.

Great video! I love my 25-06 I'm using mine for elk, deer, mountain lion and wolf this year

I love the 25/06 Remington, but the 270 Winchester is hard to beat. It’ll do everything that the 25/06 will do and then some. Awesome video bro.

I don’t know how you do it but I was just reading on the 25-06 today and am now considering a rifle in it. Awesome videos!

Awesome video! Learn something new everyday from your channel. Keep up the good work!

Love BOTH of these very accurate calibers with the .270 edging it out. Good comparison!

You always mention how you appreciate us watching. Well, hopefully you hear quite a bit about how much we truly appreciate you posting. Great job as usual Adam, that includes Paul. God bless. 🙏🏼

Beautiful rifles 👌🏼 I lean towards the .25-06 though.. especially in M77 configuration

Hmm, I disagree with the closets bullet weight. I’d pick the most “common” weight in each class. That said I’m guessing the .270......on to the video!

Great video I own a Browning BAR in 270 and have taken both mule deer and pronghorn antelope with it I love that round

Your Weatherby is such a striking-looking rifle! I love that highly polished stock! Both calibers are excellent rounds--and the .25-06 REM is much appreciated for its relatively soft recoil.

Great video as always. Your 270 is a work of art. I have a 270 A-bolt that I love. I have never fired a 25-06, but a guy I use to work with has one. He calls it a "coyote suppressor deluxe".

Excellent info

I love my 25-06.. used to there were lots of different ammo choices. That one will do fine on your 1000 yard vids.

Love the vids WTW! The rifles as well! Both great cartridges!🤙

Great video. A chronograph is on my wish list. Nice Weatherby!

270 for me but in saying that my friend shoots with a 25-06 and it is a pig slayer with very impressive ballistics. Cheers

My first deer as well as my first shot were both 270 winchester out of a 1955 winchester model 70. I love that cartridge.

Both beautiful rifles. I'm partial to the 270. I inherited a Remington model 30 Express in 270 from my uncle when he passed away. It has a 24" bull barrel , s-bolt Enfield action and myrtle wood stock. Stunning rifle. I put a 4x12x 1000yrd zoom tactical scope on it, a firefox, cheapy . Strictly a bench rest rifle. But it will reach out and touch ya. Love you're videos. 🇺🇸

Love them chronograph vids. Well done 👏 listing all the variables. Berrel length. Bullet wait. Avratised speed... we like 270 for antelope . I took My farther inlaw and friend on a guided hunt and dad shot his facing up at 90yard dropped in its tracks and his friend took his at 286 yards broadside. It walled 10 yards and reard up flipping over dead.both with the same 270

I love both of them. Looking at maybe a Weatherby in 25-06. Maybe one of theses days! Great video!!

Sweet comparison.. I 've always been interested in those two rounds

The 270 comes in right behind my 308 in my favorite hunting caliber. your videos always give me something to think about

Great calibre, very flat, very fast, never ceases to amaze me, Great videos 👍🏼

I've groundhog hunted with 25-06 years ago.. used to turn'em inside out with my Papaw's reloads !

I have hunted with a 25-06 Ruger M77 tang safety model for years (since 1990). I got the chance, NAY, Privilege, to build my own custom barrel back in 1995 with a very skilled barrel maker! Was fun as heck! Made it 26" long, fluted, 416 Stainless. I blue printed the action and have a awesome shooter now! I managed to get a 270Win in the same M77 Tang safety model, and put a 26" Shilen barrel on that. A Boyds Laminate stock finished that project off! Cant go wrong with either cartridge for sure!

that weatherby vanguard makes me drool every time i see it it sure is a nice classic looking rifle

That Weatherby is a beauty!!! I don't normally by anything but synthetic stocks anymore just because it's light and I like to hunt with them, but that Weatherby is a work of art! It's always fun to see 2 rifles with the same parent case go against one another like this. The Ruger is no slouch either and I am a sucker for a bull/heavy contour barrel.

Thanks for the comparison. Both are great rounds. Your 2506 has the optimum length barrel at 26".

Seeing that wetherbee almost brought me to tears.. long story short. My grandfather was mayor of Minneapolis from 1940 to 1943. Marlin perkins from wild Kingdom tv show gave my grandfather a 1940 wetherbee 30 06 made in Germany with ivory inlays BEAUTIFUL with a high power wetherbee scope witch he used in Africa to hunt rhinos The leather case was a work of art in itself complete wild life scenes on it. Anyway my Dad used it all our lives and was supposed to go to me and my twin brother. Dad started getting alzheimer's and sold the gun to some asshole who knew what it was worth for 900$😪😪 showed a picture of it to a gun museum in northern Minnesota and they said it was 15 to 20 thousand dollar Gun😪. I'd rather have my senior commander of the purple heart Korean war chosen few hero Dad back! Because he was priceless! The gun was a great family heirloom but still just a rifle

I have deer with 300wm 30.06 25.06 7mm08 and the 25.06 is my favorite been using it since 1989 also a ruger I love it

The Weatherby is a beauty. The Ruger Hawkeye is very serious looking. 26-inch barrel? Cool. I like the woodwork on the Weatherby. That's classy. Thanks for sharing! Stay healthy!

My only high-power hunting rifle is a .270 Interarms Mk X that was a door prize at a Ducks Unlimited dinner in about 1972. It still EASILY shoots under 1" at 100 yards. I've shot many deer with it, and it always does what it's supposed to do. I used to just shoot the Remington Core-Lokt ammunition from the store, but now I reload the same bullets for a little savings, and shoot them at the same speed as the factory loads, so they pretty much go in the same holes. Nice video. Thanks!

I have a savage model 110 270 ... love that rifle very accurate and every deer I've shot with it I haven't had to track more then 40 yards !

That .270 is just gorgeous. I love ruger but picking that vanguard every time.

Anyone wanting a 25:06,You need to Reload for that rifle,Factory loads in my opinion are to lite.I load a 100 grain nosler Ballistic tip with 54 grains of IMR 4831,Pushing it at over 34FPS.Both guns are great and I really enjoy your video!Keep up the great work my freind!

Great video, some nice looking rifles

liked your test today. watched one from last year on muzzle loaders its almost time again to load up again . you should try just a round lead ball if you want to see the jell jump

I just bought a Ruger Hawkeye All Weather 25-06 like a week ago. Great shooting rifle, but have to wait till next deer season to hunt with it.

Is a said in one of your other videos I also have an M77 in 25 06 But an older low time model I also have the 270 in a 700 bdl rem. Both are excellent rifles and cartridge's And both shoot very accurately and I have killed several deer with each !! (150 class ) Loved the comparison and I will cherish both these calibres for the rest of my days !! ❤

Nice one Who Tee ..

Two great guns, I have the 25-06, took many deer and groundhogs with it, never had a 270, figured the 25-06 was good enough, Nice video who-Tee, now you can shoot some plates and gallon jugs….Whooooo Tee Whoooooo !!!!

I have hunted with a browning abolt 270 for over 25 years and have taken a lot of deer with it. I purchased a ruger m77 25-06 a couple of years ago and have taken a hand full of deer with it. Love both rifles a lot, both of them shoot great!!

Been using a 270 for over 30 years, currently have 2. It is one of the best alround performers available.

I use my 25-06 for pronghorn antelope I’ve never had to track at all it dropped them where they stood

Always enjoy your programs. Good information... I am and always have been sold on the. 270. Flat, fast, and lethal down range. On another note... be really cool if some how you obtained a old church bell.. school bell... a big bell to hang out at the furthest distance of your range there... just kinda fun to ring a bell.

Thanks for sharing. I've owned a 25-06 since the late 1990s. Purchased a 270 this past year. These are two of my favorite calibers. Good to see you have longer barrels. Optimal barrel length for the 25-06 is 24" due to the slower burning powders used in its loads. Both rifles shoot flat and hard.

Thanks WTW! My .25-06 reloads were 3200 fps using Nosler 125 gr. boat tail hollow tips out of my Remington 700 Varmint Special bull barrel using an old Weaver K10x Range Finder AO. The action and chamber and trigger were touched up by a fella in central CA. named Ken Clark a renowned local gunsmith. I used to hunt bounty coyotes and feral dogs for cattle ranchers, and ground squirrels for large orchard owners. $10 per dog, $15 for coyotes and .25 cent a tail for ground squirrels. A weekend camp and good hunt would pay for the gas, ammo and beer. Hitting and blowing up squirrels out to 800 yards over and over all day, was a lot of fun. Canines were a lot of work. Good old days for me.

Good looking shiny stock om the Weatherby. Same length barrels ?

Great choices.... Weatherby in .270 win is an awesome rifle choice. That is my go to rifle. Mine is a Vanguard w/ synthetic stock rifle and I mounted a 3-9x40mm Leupold scope on it. Crazy accurate combo. Dime size groups @ 100 yds. It is a no frills super accurate rifle. I use rem corlokt 130 gr SP ammo... If you need a go to rifle setup that is reasonably priced this is it.

🇺🇸 💜🙏🏼💜 I first started to follow you when you did a video using that beautiful .270 and I’ve been following ever since. I live in Pennsylvania, and have lost count of the number of white tails I’ve killed with my .270 Remington, with 130 grain bullets... it was the first rifle I bought when I was still in school ... 1975 that gun still will shoot a sub 1/2 inch group at 100 yards. I’ve killed black bears using 150 grain and a ton of groundhogs using 90 grain hollow points. Antelope at 400 yards and Mule deer at 150, in Wyoming... I have a few rifles, but none can compare to my .270. I really enjoy your videos and appreciate the time and effort you use to share with your followers. Much Respect to you and Heavy Metal..l thank You both for the entertainment. Stay Safe, and good luck this deer season.

Both are stellar caliber guns!

Next, chronograph comparison between .17 HMR and .50 BMG. And we want the same weight projectiles!!!!!!!

I love how dbl tap tell you the barrel length they got the speed from

Love the fusion in my Tikka 270, it makes the average Joe look like a professional sniper.

I have killed Deer, Elk and Black Bear with my 270. In the Great State of Idaho.

6 years ago I took a mature bull elk 6 X 6 with my Winchester model 70 25 06 Wyoming I have taken several elk most with 7 mm mag

First rifle I ever bought was a 270win. It's a Howa 1500. The action is smooth as glass and it's super accurate with all the commercial loads I've shot. I dont get to shoot anymore because I cant any 270win ammo in stores or online and I'm holding on to what i have.

Hey wtw I know of a few long range shooters round me that love the 25.06 highly dought my nephew will ever get done borrowing mine🤣!!!

I have killed a Buffalo with a 25-06. They are as deadly as any rifle with the right ammo. I also have an old Rem 700 ADL .270 I got when I was 11. I’ve killed more deer than anthrax has with that old gun! Doesn’t matter what bullet I’ve ever stuck in it, always shot straight! Good comparison WTW! ✌️🇺🇸👍

Would you consider doing more versus videos with these two cartridges that would be awesome

I don't really care whether the bullet weights are the same. I'd rather see each rifle fired with a bullet of the weight for which the caliber was designed. That's a better indication of what we should be doing and getting.

25-06 is one of my all time favorites. I have high hopes that it comes out on top.

Maybe do accuracy at different distances and drop say over 100 to 500 yards be interesting to see since I have heard that the 25-06 is better as a longer flatter flying projectile than other long range shooting guns?

Who tee who..classic vibeo..cheers m8

i have both, new rem 700bdl and new patriot 25 06 havent sighted in yet but its gonna be fun

My grandad has both of those calibers in ruger m77s that are about 40 years old they are good rifles

From South Africa, love my .270 with 150 gr bullets.

As a few others have said, I think you should do this using the most common weight for each caliber

Does the Prochrono work pretty good for you? Been thinking about getting one or a Caldwell. Thanks

WTW, thank you for FINALLY shooting the .25-06. Great gun, I have a savage axis and it will drive thumb tacks at 200 yards. Can't wait to see you shoot clay or gel, you'll be impressed.

I love that Ruger 25-06, it has a beautiful stock and the barrel matches perfectly. I'm not too familiar with 25-06 so maybe one day I'll get a chance to shoot one.

I'am Suscribed to you channel because i'like your videos, greetings from mexico

I had the Ruger M77 25 inch barrel n270 killed many many many many deer with it it is my go-to game rifle and I used 130 boat tail bullet extended-range

Good velocities mate .... I bet you get confused as to which gun to take deer hunting as you do have a few to choose from 👍🏁🇦🇺

What scope is that on the 25-06 that you mentioned was so nice?

Like i told you earlier... i LOVE my 25.06 i have killed many deer and never had one to run very far at all. Been shooting it since i bought the Mod 70 Win back in 1970!

Both are fantastic deer calibers.

270 Weatherby my dream rifle.

Love that Weatherby 270

I said it before and I’ll say it again.. that 270 belongs in a museum!!! JK.. you are very lucky to own a rifle like that.. awesome

Both are good cartridges I’ve killed elk with 25-06 before I had got in a 270 I like both and it would be hard to choose one over the other

Really like that black stock on the Ruger

Going to use 25 06 this summer have seen my dad shoot whitetail at 400 yards

In my 85 Sako 270 I always load Nosler 130 gr Partition for deer. They never run, and usually drop on the spot. I find the bigger bullets go straight through and explode on the other side, then the deer run sometimes hundreds of yards.. Thanks, I love both calibers.
