[QUOTE="Sage Stalker, post: 683260, member: 52448"] I hunted with a Rem 700 in 6.5x55 for a few years. Light recoil and it dropped every blacktail and Muley with one shot. Very impressive at reasonable ranges. I am also curious about the 6.5-06 as I am wanting to build a long range hunter/target multi purpose rifle. I hear all the praise going to the 6.5-284 in the 1000 yrd matches but looking at ammo costs I can get .25-06 brass a whole lot cheaper than 284 brass, but I don't know if I will achieve the same accuracy. Has anyone had any personal experience with hunting or target at long ranges with a 6.5-06? [/QUOTE]
