[QUOTE="iclick, post: 1561715, member: 90335"] I have 6.5-06, 6.5 Creedmoor and a 6.5-284 Norma rifles. The 6.5-284 Norma is my go to choice for long range hunting. I load 140 vld to 3,072fps with RL26. Granted the barrel life is usually about 1000 rounds but as a hunting weapon I will never wear it out. My go to bullet however for game is the 130Gr. Cutting Edge MTH loaded with RL26 at 3,150FPS. All game shot with it has dropped right there. The 6.5-06 is my second choice caliber but it is a long action so I use it less. I load the 130MTH to 3,200 FPS in it as it has a greater H20 capacity. Just my 2 cents... [/QUOTE]
