[QUOTE="cfvickers, post: 403000, member: 25488"] My vote goes toward get one of each, thats what I am working on, but I am trying for three of each. So far I have 3 6.5x55's and 2 6.5-284's Next will likely be the wsm or maybe a 30 inch tube in 6.5 Creedmore for the Encore. or possibly 6.5-06 ackley with a 9 1/4 inch twist for lighter bullets. If I were new to 6.5s I would likely look at the 6.5x55 just to prove to yourself that 3200 FPS is not necessary when your BC is over .500 it will show the real potential of the 6.5 bullets. My oppinion is that 6.5mm is the perfect caliber, it has high BC's, light recoil, can be extremely efficient in the right cartridge, and it kills game like a lightening bolt. yeah, I guess I am biased but heavier bullets from 7mms and up cause unnecessary recoil for any discipline other than the largest of game.
