[QUOTE="Dumpstick, post: 3872223, member: 41653"] I don't know. I have an older Savage in .30-06 that I considered re-barrelling to a .25-06. I didn't, mostly because I don't need another cartridge to reload. But really, I'm not looking for anything in a long action. If the rifle was worth selling I would consider moving it along, but I think I'll just use it as a cast bullet shooter. It's the only long action rifle I have that is scoped - everything else is issue Milsurp. I think that the long action cartridges are fading in popularity, merely because of the ubiquitous AR style rifles. Most folks don't shoot long range anyway, and even hunting is losing popularity. No need for far-shooters if the far-shooting crowd is dwindling. Still, I think the 25-06 popularity was mostly west of the Mississippi anyway. [/QUOTE]
