[QUOTE="Dekker, post: 211217, member: 7895"] Steve I have owned the 6.5x06 and shot the Ackley version. I would not fool with the Ackley version. My 6.5x06 was a great performer however I shot it with only heavy bullets like Berger 140 VLD. If your son can handle the 7mm08 then he should have no issues with the 6.5x06. As stated above the 280 might make a better choice a simple rebarrel with factory ammo available, better bulllet selection, and the ability to go heavier for larger game if needed. [/QUOTE]
