[QUOTE="RockyMtnMT, post: 248372, member: 7999"] My 12yr old son shot his 1st elk this year w/ his 6.5-06 at 375yrds. Loaded w/ 130g Sciroccos at 2950fps. Shot through the heavy shoulder bone going in, took out the front of the lungs, and broke the shoulder bone on the off side. Found the bullet in the meat when we butchered. Bullet retained 82% of it's weight. Needless to say I was very impressed, this was a great big old cow, they don't get any bigger. Perhaps tomorrow I will try and post the trip and pics again and see if I can get it to work on a different thread. Good luck w/ your 6.5 Steve [/QUOTE]
