[QUOTE="Milepost, post: 1802211, member: 104022"] Little apples to oranges comparison?? You are comparing the best in class bc 135 6.5 A-tip to a 168 VLD HUNTING bullet. If you were to use the 7MM 162 ELD match bulletin in your comparison, you would find that the windage is virtually the same out to 750 yards with half the drop. At these ranges it's more about correcting for the wind...Right? IMO- If the OP has elk and black bear in his hunting plans then he should definitely go for the 7mm but for mule deer on down I'd pick the 6.5 PRC or, my personal favorite, the 6.5 SAUM/Sherman Max (if you don't mind hand loading). ADG is making excellent brass for both the PRC and the 6.5 SAUM. So finding good brass is not much of a major issue anymore. [/QUOTE]
