[QUOTE="Creedmoor shooter, post: 1779183, member: 72601"] I think it's a combination of bullet availability and balance. It has a wide range of useable hunting, target, and long range capable bullets.The 6.5 cal is well balanced. It has a good weight range with great high BC bullets. The weight range is good from varmints to elk without being overkill. I used to think marketing played a role but honestly if marketing was the only thing it had going for it then it would've died off by now. 6.5s just work. [/QUOTE]
