Got some 110 gr Tipped Game Kings for 25-06 coming, H4350 H4831 H1000 IMR 4350 IMR 4831 IMR 7828.
Hoping to get 3200 fps and less than half inch groups. It's been a while since I fooled with the 25-06 but I think those are reasonable goals.
Probably start with the H4831 and go from there.
 
I'm using the 140's in my 6.5 PRC. Easily got sub .5" @ 200yds. Shot a doe last year at ~75yds with typical cup/core performance. dropped instantly. Core punched through, jacket was found under the skin on the far side. About what I expected at that velocity and range.

I recently ordered a Weatherby Vanguard in 25-06. so I've been doing a bit of research lately with the thought of possibly reloading for it. With that bullet weight and a 24 inch barrel, 3200 fps seems to be a very reasonable velocity to shoot for. I've been focusing on the 110 gr Nosler AccuBond. I'd be interested to see your results once you get going with it.

It was my first ever rifle. A prefix Rem 700 BDL 25-06. It's been abused since 78 and haven't shot it in 10 years

Guys at Bugholes blueprinted the action , pinned a .250 recoil lug to it , put a M16 extractor on it and installed the Bartlien bbl,, its stainless and only way to finish it all was to have it cerakoted in midnight blue. Soon as the cerakote is done I'll have it back.

I got a pristine BDL Walnut stock period correct to use on it also.

I have the old Redfield 6x wide view scope that was on it new and a gloss 3.5-10 Leupold

I'm pretty sure that's gonna be an easy goal,, I've shot a crap load of 100 gr bullets through a 25-06 with IMR 4831 at 3425 fps. It was the only rifle I owned until I was 30 years old
