[QUOTE="Mach 1, post: 1494974, member: 104202"] You don’t know what your talking about. A 308 shooting the new 200 gr sierra matchking at 2700 FPS sighted in at 100 yards vs the 6.5 creedmore shooting the 140 Berger VDL. Going 2850 FPS at 1000 yards the 308 drops more by 3.4 moa. BUT with a 10 mph 90 degree wind at 1000 yards the 308 has about .5 moa LESS wind drift. At 1000 yards the 308 is going 1610 FPS with 1150 foot pounds of energy. The 6.5 creedmore at 1000 yards is going 1632 FPS and only has 829 foot pounds of energy. The 308 beats the 6.5 creedmore in almost everything at 1000 yards and it’s only gets worse for the creedmore at farther yardages. The 6.5 creedmore is better than the 308 win only when comparing the high bc 6.5 bullets to the older low bc 308 bullets. If you don’t believe me look it up for yourself. [/QUOTE]
