[QUOTE="StanleyActual, post: 2272478, member: 119220"] Lol. Easy there. It’s not about grudges. It’s about the numbers. Just because a caliber has been around for for a long time and you like it doesn’t make it “better” than XXX caliber. It’s just means it’s older and you like it 😉 308’s hold a special place in my heart. Was my primary weapons system for quite a few year and caliber of choice for a time after that, but facts are facts and the numbers don’t lie. feelings aside. the 6.5CM is ballistically superior to the 308 in both trajectory, drift and energy on target at distance Recoil is less. As I said, the only con to the 6.5CM I see when compared to the 308 is barrel life. Hornady ammo shoots lights out, and is readily available. The 308 will Bit slightly harder at close to medium distances but the CM retains its velocity better so it’s gonna hit harder at the extended ranges. Just because the 6.5CM is superior to 308, Doeant mean the 308 isn’t good or that I have a grudge against it. Its iconic and a classic . Performance wise, It’s just not at same level as the 6.5CM.
