[QUOTE="Don A Parsons, post: 1859446, member: 97414"] Yuppers,,, i had mine built last year,,, sized up some brass,,, filled the cartridges with powder,,, seated some 140 to 146 gr bullets to see what shot best and went hunting... Pretty forgiving cartridge to work with... The 6.5 bullets don't have that Pa Pack sound feed back on critters like the 30 and 338 bullets,,, but ill have to admit that they get past the fur coat and make 1 heck of a mess on the insides... It will be the only 65 I've used for hunting and target shooting,,, super fun for sure... Im a 30 caliber dude for many years,,, soon to return to it in the coming years,,, but yes,,, the 6.5 is a fantastic game getter,,, i sure can't think of anything here in North America or in Africa that it cant knock down with good shot placment... the 6.5/06,,, A-Square are semi low on the scale of re-coil,,, so keeping it on target is fairly easy...
