[QUOTE="Wachsmann, post: 932629, member: 10429"] just to chime in on this...The 6.5 is not really cheap for as other ammo goes. The cost of brass is about like buying weatherby brass. After that initial hump then it may be cheap. A 308 would be much cheaper to shoot I would think. Both will do the 1000 yards but one shoots a lot flatter has better BC's. I have the 6.5 and love it. I'm not nocking the tejas rounds but I think it would be more in the long run if you are having to fire form brass unless it possible to just resize the brass. Or if it is custom brass than its a whole different game. After looking at the 6.5 tejas velocity I would think it will cost more per round than the 6.5x284 norma, but it would have some smoken speed out of the 140VLD's. I would think the barrel will also wear out a lot faster as well. Just my 2$. [/QUOTE]
