[QUOTE="Tom Brush, post: 1245369, member: 6449"] I get a kick out of stating that the 6.5-300 Wby Mag. is new. Way back in the late 1950's to early 1960's the boys at Williamsport, PA were shooting deer with one at very long range. I was in high school at the time and two of my friends shot their deer every year with one. I remember that few long range bullets existed for 6.5 so they used I believe a 139 gr. Norma bullet which they cut a groove around the tip to make it an expanding bullet. I guess that "new" means new for Weatherby. Tom [/QUOTE]
