[QUOTE="johnc427, post: 1512815, member: 27618"] Looking into building an light deer/goat/sheep rifle for some upcoming hunts, possibly in AK. I would like to hear some real world experience shooting a short (20-22”) barrel 6.5 SAUM. My goals are a light (sub 6.5lb total) and compact rifle capable of taking deer size game to the 800 yard range while pushing a 140 class bullet @ or around 3,000 FPS. I know how much people love the 6.5 CM, 6.5x47 and “the like” in a short barrel but I want something with a little more power and speed. Plus I’m already geared up for 6.5 SAUM as I used to have one but sold it, as it was too heavy. Any help is much appreciated. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
