[QUOTE="Stonegoat, post: 1142327, member: 91193"] This thread is interesting to me. I acquired a 6.5 Creedmoor within the last year, and have been developing loads for it. I'm probably going to settle on the Barnes 120 TTSX or 127 LRX. All my elk so far have been killed with my 308 with either 150 TSX or 168TTSX. I love the Barnes bullets, especially when hunting in grizzly country, which is where I live. We rifle hunt elk during the rut here in BC, so most shots are well under 100 yards. Would a 127 LRX out of a Creedmoor have enough energy to break a front leg bone/shoulder on a quartering to shot at close range?? MV ~2750 fps ( I don't load hot) [/QUOTE]
