[QUOTE="Deleted member 46119, post: 1220862"] That is quite true. In the 6.x world you can step up in velocity from mild to wild as your heart desires. 6.5/223 6.5 Grendel. 6.5 Lapua, 6.5 CM, 6.5x55 Swede, 260, 264 WM, 6.5/300 WSM, 6.5/300WM. 26Nosler, 6.5/300Wby. 6.5/7STW, 6.5/7RUM. There is so much. Sticking with your original thought. 6.5CM and 260Remington in non-magnum, 264WM and 26Nosler in Magnum. All have a fine selection of factory rounds. For the 1000 yard paper punching I'd go non-magnum. If you are going to go for that elk with a 6.5 then either 264WM or 26-Nosler. I hope you get it sorted for hunting season. Share what your final choice and how it shoots. [/QUOTE]
