[QUOTE="Ronald W Schaefer, post: 1950600, member: 109378"] I have both. I favor 7mm-08 for Mule Deer and Elk with 145+gr Barnes LRX bullets and 6.5 CM and .260 for deer and antelope with 142 gr. Nosler ABLR--but that's just my druthers--loaded right they'll all do the job. Concerning barrel length, the 7mm-08 seems to lose less fps per inch cut compared to the 6.5. I have a Fierce Firearms CT Edge in 7-08 with 22" Barrel and get 2844 fps out of that with the 145 Barnes LRX, SAKO 85 in .260 Rem with 22" barrel and get 2820 out of the 142 NOS ABLR and get 2700 out of the Fierce CT Edge 6.5 CM with 142 Nos ABLR with 20" [/QUOTE]
