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...

I recall my 6.5prc did 2990 with 147eldm out of 20 inch barrel with superformance. No pressure signs

Nah mate, not just lucky. 147eldm hammer animals. I've shot plenty with the 140 gold dot, 143 eldx, 123sst and 147eldm, the 147 eldm is next level for impact 'wack' and nocking the animals.

Yep I’ve shot quite a few animals with the 147s near and far. Always worked. Had a play with 140 ballistic tips and 130 sierra gkhp but now only use 147s.

Yeah I can imagine it's not easy. We haven't seen any substantial progression in the development of suppressors available in NZ for maybe 10 years now, since the current crop came out. It would...

Someone should design and build an overbarrel version to reduce the muzzle forward length

The ideal scope would be something like a 2.5 to 10. Or something like the March 1.5 to 15 but with a 30 mm tube in first focal plane instead of 34mm tube. Also if Swarovski could have done their old...
