   500 and in, lightweight and shoot able a 6.5 creedbore is pretty hard to beat. Still cheats the wind, holds plenty of energy, and doesn't hop all over the show so you can get a second shot off when...

   Interesting post. I’m in the process of rebarrelling my kimber Montana with a 1-8” chambered in 6cm. Should make a good light mountain rifle. Like Bill999 I like the wee kimbers as well. Sent...

   Bit late on this but, may be relevant This is what I think you may find useful Sako Finnlight in, 6.5x55, 260, 6.5 creed or dare I say 6.5prc, though for someone who fires a shot or two a hunt...

   Know what you mean about magnum rifles. Buzz kindly sold me a 260 carbonlight a year or two back and I recently fitted a 2.4-12x50 Swarovski z5. Fits in low optilocks and has a MOA turret. Using 147...

   Have to admit, this whole debate has got me wondering about cartridge options when I've shot out my .243 barrel, 8 twist .243 so I can use the 105 Berger maybe, an 18" .308 with a decent suppressor...

    Ive got a few options In saying that, I dont really have a hankering for a 6.5 06, just that if I run with that then the bolt face will need little to no work. 6.5 PRC is also an option, and so is...

    The only way down in weight from a carbonlight is ultralights like a howa mini 6.5 grendel in a ken Henderson stock or a kimber Montana I'm a real fan of Kimber's for this type of work. Any 243-308...
