Thread: Which 6.5

The 6.5 Creedmoor along with the 6.5x47 Lapua were designed as target rounds not hunting while they are excellent cartridges for deer at moderate ranges neither are as good as the 6.5x55 in modern rifles with the heavier
projectiles, The 6.5x47 Lapua was all the rage for a few years when shooters found out that it was not killing deer at a kilometre they dumped it the 6.5 Creedmoor will go the same way if you have a Tikka T3 there is no point
in having a short 6.5 the action is long enough for just about any cartridge, The 6.5x55 is one of the easiest cartridges to shoot recoil is mild not much more than a .243 also easy to reload just pick a bullet and the appropriate
powder and you have a tack driver, if want to abuse yourself get a .264 Win Mag
