[QUOTE="Don Rackley, post: 2909009, member: 123332"] I went down this same path years ago. The gunsmith recommended 6.5x47 Lapua for its ease of load development and high quality brass. I was thinking seriously of 6.5CM, but I knew I was going to load for it, so 47L is what I went with. So glad I did, it’s a 1/2MOA gun all the way to the white buffalo at Raton, and it has killed whitetails and mulies. If you are going to shoot 600+ yards, you will most likely reload to get a load the rifle likes. Finding the load (ladder tests and lands test) was a fantastic learning road. [/QUOTE]
