[QUOTE="RockyMtnMT, post: 1187258, member: 7999"] I am a huge fan of the 6.5 cal. That said, having killed lots of animals and been along on lots of other's kills, there is no replacement for displacement. I think bigger dia kills better than smaller dia. Dead is dead, one doesn't make them deader. It is the process of dying that sometimes is different. So as a rule I will say that the bigger the dia of a bullet the more consistent that process remains. Much of this discussion really comes down to the bullet choice rather than the rifle used. So just to muddy my statement....I am not at all afraid to use 6.5 cal for hunting big game. Just want to be fair in the comparison. Steve [/QUOTE]
