[QUOTE="Hespco, post: 1772915, member: 109476"] Another thought in favor of the 6.5 since you mention deer to be your primary target. The 6.5 with the Barnes 100grTTSX or the Nosler 100gr partition has proven over & over to be very capable of taking mature muley bucks . We do so every year. My favorite being the Barnes 100gr TTSX because of it's high BC. Firing these 100gr Barnes out of the 24" bbl 1/8 twist of my 6.5-06 gives a little over 3440 fps. Shooting on my own range out to 522yds target ( my max range ) I have found them, to be very capable. They get to the 522 yd target right now. Comfortable recoil with flat trajectory & complete pass thru penetration even if bone is encountered. Almost no blood shot meat.With the 120gr Barnes also very elk capable. With the 24" Bbl this rifle is handy to carry & of reasonable weight. What is not to like. [/QUOTE]
