[QUOTE="Eagleye242, post: 1704470, member: 111043"] I will not get wrapped up in the Creedmoor game. Both the 6.5 and the 6mm variants are undoubtedly great chamberings, but I feel that I have the field covered nicely. I own 2 - 6mm Remingtons, both 8 twist, one is a sporter the other a very heavy unit to shoot in 1000 YD competition. As for 6.5mm, I have two rifles in that bore diameter...one is a sporter, 6.5x55, the other also a sporter in 6.5x55AI. Both have 8 twist, custom barrels. While they will do the job, I do not consider the 6mms nor the 6.5mms to be long range elk killers. Knowing the amount of killing a big bull can absorb and still travel into the ugly tangles of brush, I prefer chamberings with more authority. Dave. [/QUOTE]
