[QUOTE="FIGJAM, post: 1532085, member: 71039"] :rolleyes: This a awesome - keep it coming. I am going to be out chasing coyotes the next few days and might not keep up with this thread. I’ve been waiting for some of Steve’s buddies to come to his rescue. You or Steve or Rhian can PM me and I’ll give you guys my cell number so you can keep me up to speed on whats being said. The thread has actually picked up some momentum. I like the discussions about the 6.5 bullets themselves and their effectiveness, especially vs the 7mms. That is really what this is all about. If the OP’s post would have been about a 7mm08 would it have generated so much controversy? Maybe, I don’t know - I doubt we would have heard hate towards a specific cartridge, my guess is it would be a different conversation. The 7mms have got a lot of love for a really long time here in the US. 6.5’s have only seemed to have small cult like followings in any cartridge here until the creed came along. Seems like its sudden popularity rubs traditionalists the wrong way. Too bad Remington’s marketing department, bullets and barrel twists suck - we could be arguing about the 260 Rem. [/QUOTE]
