[QUOTE="Cold Trigger Finger, post: 1516436, member: 56732"] I've killed a bunch of caribou with my 18.6" barrel , 6.5 Creedmoor. Out to just under 400 yards. Shooting mostly 130 gr TSX and 130 gr Sirocco2 @ 2775. 1 shot each. Bang flop. The heaviest was 300+ lb @ 300 y. 130 gr TSX . straight on . bullet went in beside the wind pipe and exited next the nut sack. Around 46" of straight penetration . Bull turned about 140° and fell over dead. I might not have had the confidence to make that shot with the Grendel. But that is probably just me. Having watched lots of guy with bigger rifles consistently average 2 shots per bou at closer ranges. Including 300 RUMs and several 06s. I can guarentee the 6.5 kills that size game every bit as well as anything bigger. [/QUOTE]
