[QUOTE="arch408, post: 1696751, member: 59036"] Where is it going to stop. Thirty years ago, "knowledgable" hunters criticized me for hunting deer with my 6.5 Rem Mag. And I'm a die hard 30-06 fan. My first 6.5 kill was done with a 100gr Factory Corelokt. It was not my first choice. I had been hunting coyotes prior to opening day and I did not have time to pick up my 30-06 at my folks house. One shot kill. Broad side through the rid cage. I killed many after that. All killed with 120gr bullets and all one shot kills with no tracking necessary. Corelokts until I ran out of them. One Speer(which blew up in the chest cavity) and the rest with Sierras which performed admirably. Now the 6.5 Creedmoor is touted as an elk cartridge. We also have the .264 Win, 6.5-.284, 6.5 SAUM, numerous other wildcats and now the 6.5 PRC. Do we need another 6.5? [/QUOTE]
