[QUOTE="jtkratzer, post: 625182, member: 40885"] I know match/steel are different than hunting, and FMJ is different than hunting projectiles, but if the military is good with .308, and the 6.5 carries more energy and velocity out to 1,000 yards, why do so many people think the 6.5s are limited to 500 yards for game up to 350 lbs? The solid copper bullets like the Barnes TTSX and Hornady GMX need 1800 FPS, but lead tips and lead core ballistic tips don't. [/QUOTE]
