    Experience with 6.5-06 AI on elk sized game out to 400?

    Thanks for all the great replies on here very well-thought-out. These are great points! I was playing with the ballistic calculator last night and I just don't see any advantage to change it. Now I just need to figure out how to change the barrel! The boys do you like reloading we do it...

    I would use a brake but I'm not a fan of the added sound they make. Thanks for the personal experience with the 6.5.

    Experience with 6.5-06 AI on elk sized game out to 400?

    I need to rebarrel my Tikka t3 (see other thread) and shifting between my old faithful 270 and the 6.5-06, or 6.5-06 AI. It would primarily be for my kids in their teens, so the lighter bullet might feel a bit better. Any thoughts on this round for elk? Actual harvest experience? And if so...

    Tikka t3 rechambered to 6.5-06 AI?

    I have a 25-06 with lots of pitting from the prior owner leaving it in the wet basement! I'm thinking it would be fun to have the 6.5-06 AI as almost all of my brass is either 270 or 30-06. Any thoughts on where I might get the barrel? I would like to buy the wrenches just to have done it...

    xbolt 26 Nosler bolt replacement?

    My son was given a Xbolt Hells Canyon with a missing bolt. Because Browning doesn't make them anymore, it doesn't sound cheap to have Browning build a custom bolt. Any recommendations?
