Need bullet advice for my 25-06. Deer and bear to 250 YDS and yotes to 400 YDS. Factory loads haven't been holding together so its time to press my own but at this time of year I don't have time to spend a ton of time testing on my own. Killed a bear and whitetail this week and bullet performance once again sucked.
 
TSX or TTSX are never a bad choice. Federal should have a factory load with one of those if you don't reload or don't have time.
 
Federal loads both the TXS, and Partition bullets that will serve you well.
I have had nothing but good results with plain old Core-Lokt ammo for both deer, and moose in 25-06.
 
The might be kind of expensive for coyotes, but here's another vote for the TSX bullets. They seem to really work well on big game.

How do you know bullet performance "sucked"? Yotes and deer are pretty thin skinned fragile critters. Plain old Remington Core-Lokt stuff shold drop them with ease. Bears are a bit more well put together but still factory remmie 120's should perform well.
