[QUOTE="popgun240, post: 1637538, member: 86838"] I guess all these people that talk about a 6.5 PRC, 6.5X300 Wby Mag and all weren't around when the .264 Win Mag came out. It's barrel life was around 300 rounds. Hot burning, abrasive powder and a Throat Erosion that just destroyed the Original Rifle Winchester put out. I agree with the statement of whow needs to shoot an Elk at 100yards. A little wing, a little warble and it's either wounded or dies later that day MILES from where it was hit. My circumstances of being an Amputee and Nevada Game Laws, I require a long range ACCURATE, stable rifle. That's a 300 Win Mag. It kills with authority at 600 yards and will smash the front shoulder if it hits there because of Wind Drift or me wobbling. Those 6.5 rifles need to be restricted to that 1500 foot pound Minimum. Maybe it's time for Western States to dictate those figures and facts. Save wounded, lost Game Animals. No offense to those that continue to use light cslibers. In Nevads, the 223 Rem/5.56x45 are LEGAL FOR ELK, ANTELOPE AND VENISON. [/QUOTE]
