    6.5 boring, true, boringly accurate. I understand a man needs a challenge but, wouldn't it be easier to keep the 6.5's and go buy a staffy to train to fetch your wounded ducks.
    Got a staffy, 12 years old, knows how to sit, sometimes.

    I have been reading some more on this and it seems that even 110@2900 might be a bit of American folklore. what about a 270-08... hmmmmmmm

    Last weekend, 6.5X55, 140gn amax - so all old tech. 704 meters, 12in plate, dialled up from a 200m zero, 1st shot a bit low (saw in scope), 3 clicks extra, 2 and third shots the plates swinging. Oh and I've never shot this above 200m.... 6.5mm - boring in that it works.

    True that.

    Use a 6.5.
