[QUOTE="Varminator 911, post: 199918, member: 9705"] [b]Impressive speeds but...[/b] That 6mm STW sure gives impressive speeds. 80-90 gr bullets at 220 Swift speeds!! But when you get on JPM and look at the long range ballistics, neither the 6mm nor 6.5 STW can compete with the good old 7mm STW. Not as a long range round for deer size game. Past 500 yds those little high speed bullets cann't compete with the 168 or 180 gr Bergers. But you guys already know this. It's just everytime I read about a 6mm super douper etc and I check it out on a ballistics program, I end up with the same conclusion; the small bullets cann't compete at long range. So what do you have; a real barrel burner that's no good for high volume varmit shooting and a deer round that cann't compete at long range. Just my 2c [/QUOTE]
