Extreme Long Range Hunting & Shooting (ELR)
Is the 6.5 Creedmoor too "light" for 1,000+ yard hunting?

[QUOTE="gohring3006, post: 1438137, member: 78762"] Let’s not kid ourselves, 1000 yard game shots are always risky. Time of flight time and wind... But a marginal hit with a 338 Lapua with a 250 @3000 fps muzzle velocity or a 300 grain @2900, has a better chance for recovery, than a 6.5 Creed and a 140. Anyone who says they have never made a marginal hit at 1000 plus, just hasn’t shot enough at that range yet. [/QUOTE]
