[QUOTE="älg, post: 299945, member: 2995"] The 6,5 projectiles tend to have a high sectional density which makes them penetrate well ( as long as the right bullet is used). As Brian says, there are many theoriews out there, you need some power to knock down an animal. I have shot just one deer ( red) with the 6,5-284 but that was under 100 yds. Have killed many goats between 40 and 850 yds. - I would not shoot an elk past 600 yds with a 6,5. [/QUOTE]
