“257 weatherby”

Hornady's new 6.5 PRC not only surpasses its 6.5 Creedmoor running mate, it out-punches the .270 Win., and delivers terminal energy in the same league as the .30-06 and 7mm Rem. Mag.

We had to draw a line somewhere, but trust us, it wasn't easy.

The 26 Nosler and 6.5-300 Weatherby Magnum are some of the fastest cartridges in their class, and both are extremely accurate, so which is the better choice for hunters?

These cartridges represent two of the earliest modern developments in .25 caliber, and both are perfect for deer- and antelope-sized game, but which has the ultimate advantage?

Your chosen hunting cartridge may not be trending up, but that doesn’t mean these classic rounds aren’t effective and efficient on game.

Charles Newton and A.O. Neider had a great idea when they mated the .25 caliber bullets with an ’06 case. Over a century after its introduction, hunters are still taking the .25-06 Remington afield to fill their freezers and feed their families.

If you’re looking for a rifle of larger diameter than your deer gun, which will complement the 7mms and .30s well, the 9.3x62mm Mauser should be a definite contender.

If you’re looking for something out of the norm, which can be housed in a handy rifle that hits hard, give the .338-06 a look. If you spend a bit of time with it, you’ll become a fan rather quickly.

Between the 7x57mm Mauser and the 7mm-08 Remington, which is the more useful cartridge for hunters? Contributor Philip Massaro compares the two and picks the winner.
