    Obviously doesn’t like 6.5 Creedmoor. Similar performance to 6x55 Swede which has successfully taken Moose etc for years. There’s tossers like that everywhere. I don’t own a Creedmoor yet but have used one, gets job done quite adequately imho.

    He's a tool, probly thinks like he looks - kinda fuzzy. I like to argue calibres (mainly with myself) but the reality is that even for a big animal like an elk, a 140gn projectile is going to do the job, with modern projectile design, probably a bit better than his rusty old 270 130gn "old school" .

    What are your thoughts?

    I think it's a good setup for a joke

    Exactly. We cant be all taking these calibre debates too seriously. I mean it might not have been the cartridge. It might have been the ELDM's
