[QUOTE="mcseal2, post: 410598, member: 22030"] For deer and antelope at long range I'd prefer the 6.5 to the 6mm. If a long barrel & heavier gun wouldn't bother you I'd look at the 264 win mag. If I was looking for something lighter with a 24" barrel I'd go with the 6.5-06 or 6.5-06 AI. If you want something different a 6.5WSM would probably be the perfect choice, shorter stiffer action & the speed of a magnum. From the performance of the other WSM's it would probably do well in a 24" barrel also. Either way you get excellent BC & wind resistance with good velocity. [/QUOTE]
