[QUOTE="777guy, post: 2263977, member: 104936"] I use my 6.5cm for most everything now. The 143 ELD-X has exhibited all the necessary positive traits to make it my go-to hunting caliber. On the range I can dial up to 1000 yds with perfect vertical placement. Light weight, very little recoil, I have about 800 rounds of ammo squirreled away so I'll never run out. I do still enjoy shooting my 300 win mag BIG-GUN on occasion. Recoil manageable with a brake and double recoil pads. It does however move just enough to lose target image in scope upon firing, less than ideal. I shoot Copper Creek custom load with 200 gr Accubond. I can easily dial 800 yds with near perfect vertical placement. I use a Rock River AR in 5.56 for pig hunts. 77 gr HPBT bullets are fabulous! Accurate and deadly. Brain stem or ear shots drop them like a sack of potatoes. [/QUOTE]
