[QUOTE="AKPilot, post: 1988430, member: 95319"] I have extensive experience with: 6.5 C 6.5 SAUM 6.5 / 300 WBY 6.5 SAUM Ivy far the finest cartridge I’ve ever owned. For 61 Gr H1000 I push 140 Bergers 3080 FPS with 62 Gr Retumbo 3123 FPS. I push Berger 130 OTM Tactical Htlybrid 3350 FPS W 62 Gr Retumbo. It is an extremely efficient cartridge and very forgiving like my 6.5 C in the reloading process. I regularly shoot steel out to a mile and have shot many deer with it including two Coues Deer one at 780 yards and one at 1100 yards. For comparison to achieve similar performance with my 6.5 WBY took 89 Gr powder and was an extremely finicky cartridge. Brass readily available through GAP precision. Loaded Ammo Copper Creek. My 2 cents. 6.5 PRC a great round also but doesn’t achieve same performance. [/QUOTE]
