[QUOTE="LVJ76, post: 2138854, member: 108965"] Will start that this is a pretty old thread but an interesting one. Rich's wildcats sure are sexy. Yes the 6.5's have some high BC bullets but the one thing they cannot offer is high energy. A 6.5 156gr bullet in a 264 Win Mag will have an energy of around 2,850 at the muzzle while a 7mm 180gr in a 7mm Rem Mag will have around 3,300. I'll take my chances with the 180gr. I'm not saying the 6.5 is bad or won't kill, I simply preffer a larger and heavier bullet There are 6.5 fans, there are 270 fans, there are 7mm fans, there are 30 cal fans, etc etc. None are wrong, just different opinions. And FYI, 7mm does rule 😉 Stay safe [/QUOTE]
