[QUOTE="Michael Eichele, post: 293805, member: 1007"] IF he can make the 6.5 wby shoot that good, I assure you hae could make a 264 winnie or a 7stw or a 300 RUM shoot that good. There is nothing special about the 6.5 in question. Some cartridges may be more inherently accurate yes, but 80+% of it is in the barrel. All else being equal the accuracy AND velocity difference between the 6.5 wby and the 264 is nada. You are the one missing the point here. Not trying to be a hard nose, just calling it how it is. If the 6.5 wby just does it for you than my hats off to you. We all have our favoraites. Just be aware that there is no magic in any cartridge. All have their good points and downfalls. The 6.5 wby just isnt the next best thing since sliced bread. Come to think of it, there isnt a cartridge that is. Good smithing and good barrels make good rifles. Not pixie dust. [/QUOTE]
