[QUOTE="Darryl Cassel, post: 2433, member: 34"] Hello Prime The 30 Cal he was using--- what caliber? Heavier mass bullet (200 Gr MK) hitting the animal is one of the reasons and if the velocity was from a magnum, more velocity then the 6.5 Possibly? I used a 30 Gibbs and 30/378 to kill woodchucks for years and the 200 gr did the job time and time again. The 6.5 140 Gr MK in my 6.5 Gibbs and the 6.5/300 Weatherby did wonders at any range to the chucks too. Got chucks out to 1450 Yards with the 30/378 and the 6.5/300 Weatherby and they were VERY dead. With our younger shooters, the 200 gr and 140 gr bullets pulverized them at 300 yards and on out. Only on occasion and if we had a young shooter with us, would let them shoot at anything under 600 yards. That was our starting point. Later DC [/QUOTE]
