My 25-06 also has a 1:14 twist. It was doing well with factory Federal Premium 117 gr Sierra Gameking BTSP. How do you think it would do with a 100 gr bullet? I have some 90 gr hollow point PPU, I may try later today.

I have never heard of a 1-14, 25-06. The standard twist rate is 1-10. I know one person who wanted a faster twist rate (1-12) and ended up spending big bucks to have it custom built. If I had one with a twist that slow, I would begin with the lightest bullets I could find.
