[QUOTE="Natty Bumpo, post: 288183, member: 10106"] I just got a 6.5X47 rifle a few months ago. It's my first and only custom rig. I love it. Was shooting out to 500 yards yesterday and it was putting 4 shot groups inside 2.5". I s'pose this has more to do with the quality of rifle than with anything magical about the 6.5X47 cartridge. But there's not much recoil and it launches 123 grain scenars at a decent velocity (I'm shooting 'em at 2,800fps, but they can be pushed faster). It'll work great on deer and other medium game; and, I'm sure it would be a good choice for groundhogs where you won't be doing a lot of high volume shooting. [/QUOTE]
