[QUOTE="JTB, post: 1674546, member: 97196"] 6.5 SAUM will be all you need out here. I’ve finally figured out I don’t need 30 cal or greater to take large game and we all have stories of what worked and what didn’t but it all boils down to a well placed shot. All my well placed shots have been effective from a 223 to 338 Edge with the same result. It is nice to now be able to carry a 6.5 lb setup in your backpack with low enough recoil to deliver and follow a great shot. A 6.5 lb 300 WSM is just hard to handle and following the shot to POI is nearly impossible. 6.5 SAUM is right in the sweet spot of being able to deliver great performance with minimal recoil. Come out west and enjoy some great long range hunting opportunities [/QUOTE]
