Thread: 6.5CM craze

I find arguments in the caliber intriguing.

Some don’t like it because it’s ‘new’ and the ‘normal’ caliber works better anyhow...

Funny though as that’s probably just human nature. Change is the most difficult thing to deal with as we get older or for those comfortable with what works for them.

I like most people my age (mid 40’s) thought it would be a craze but it’s been around a while and is most likely here to stay.
Does it work? Yep, smashes everything I’ve aimed at within 400yds Andy probably further as did my .223, .243, my mates 7mm08 and .270
No, it’s not the ‘One ring to rule them all’ but it’s inherently accurate and easy to shoot while being kind on barrels so it’s a winner in a lot of areas.
You won’t find me on a soap box preaching about it, just as you won’t find me throwing poo at other calibers to make myself feel good about my choices.

I did have to find out why people love it though and I can see why.
