[QUOTE=".300H&H, post: 1538382, member: 23852"] I think there's a decent argument of proper bullet speed for desired performance is potentially more important than energy and bullet diameter. This argument would also support your desired theory better than trying to throw the energy card out there, 30cal energy is pretty easy to trump 6.5 energy so long as the shooter can handle the recoil. Which also leads to why I believe the 6.5ers preach magical capabilities compared to 30cal. Fast heavy 30cal projectiles burn more powder, recoil more, and are just plain not as enjoyable or as easy to shoot proficiently. Sure they can be built on heavier platforms and braked, also making them less enjoyable to hunt with. [/QUOTE]
