[QUOTE="JeffVN, post: 590277, member: 2261"] If you are going to go after whitetail beyond 350-400 yards, I would choose the 6.5x47 because of the better bullets available for that cartridge. If you are looking at 6.5mm cartridges, then I think you need to consider the 6.5 Creedmore as well. I have several friends in Pa., who shoot the creedmore out to and beyond 1,000 yards, and have uniformly found them to be stunningly accurate. I have a 6x47, and run 115 DTACs. I love it. It is one of the most accurate rifles that I own. Not to mention its recoil is almost nonexhistant. But if I went 6.5mm, it would be 6.5 Creedmore. Jeffvn [/QUOTE]
