A fast 25 caliber like a 25-06 or 257 Roy is good for shooting deer / pronghorn out to about 500 yards or thereabouts. However, 25 cal bullets have low BC's and the velocity has a more rapid decline when compared to high BC bullets in 6.5 or 7 mm bullets at extended ranges. Also, they are more prone to wind deflection due to their low BC's.
