The 25-06 is a necked down 30-06 casing. The round is less than a .270 but better than a .243. I have one I use on occassion for yotes and hogs. I have no complants of the rounds perforance and distance. Great round I think.
Using a properly constructed bullet, it would be great for something that weighed 100 lbs...... too light and/or soft a bullet would make things messy.
If you are interested in eating this thing, I'd go with at least a 100 grain bullet, just to keep impact speeds out of the explosive range....
What range are you anticipating?

25-06 is the best deer size caliber you can find!! Go with the 110 gr nosler accubonds. I have taken many good size (150lbs+) deer at many different angles and ranges and it laysem flat with minimum recoil. Shoots tight and more than likely you will get a clean pass though and you have a tough enough bullet if your shot does not go exactlly where you want it to. Hope this helps and good luck!!!! Post pics when you get back!!
