    I have a 2506 AI and a 270. The 25 is very easy to hit things with and that seems to be a universal opinion amongst 2506 owners. I can still see the target in the scope when the bullet hits. The 270 kills better, because it has a bigger diameter pill. But even though the 270 is very accurate the different recoil impulse or something means that it needs more careful aiming to hit with it. 2506's are lasers, with a 26" inch barrel mine was capable of 3920 fps with 87 grain bullets. Never tried a Barnes but I am sure they would be interesting at that speed.
