[QUOTE="Goldengun, post: 1991639, member: 109636"] Generally speaking, I don't think it matters what you shot in a 6.5 if it's traveling 2800fps or faster when it hits a deer. That's MV(see point blank range) for 6.5cm/260rem with 130's depending on your setup. Whether or not the bullet holds together, or passes through is not going to matter IMO. The deer will be dead quite rapidly. At that velocity, which is to say fairly close range, a well placed shot shouldn't be a problem, which is far more important, than what bullet your shooting. Generally speaking. [/QUOTE]
