Thread: All round NZ hunting - 6.5 PRC or 7mm Short Mag

After 20+ years shooting a 25-06 and 4 years a 6.5 CM, no one can convince me that a 6.5PRC / 6.5-284 is not 'enough' for all NZ game animals.
So if that's the case why even bother about stepping up to 7mmSAUM?.
The 6.5PRC is all you need as you want reliable killing power not excessive... plus it has less recoil, less powder burnt, and availability of factory ammo.
