[QUOTE="Ian B, post: 490885, member: 20737"] James you make some valid points there about the 6.5 CM thus throwing yet another metaphorical wrench in my gears but this raises the question why have a 6.5x47 at all if the 6.5CM is the same ballistically if not better? As for the others who commented while I do respect your opinions as they are valid as well. Indeed the long action 6.5s like 6.5x284 are very good In fact they are quite common at my local 1000 yard F class and BR matches and i would go that route if I had a long action to use but I am locked in to a SA so i am trying to get the most out a 6.5 round in a short action. I should note I will be using a 24 1/2" barrel with a 1/8 twist and this gun will be set up more for hunting and practical shooting. [/QUOTE]
