[QUOTE="jrock, post: 1546575, member: 78569"] In general, I question the 6.5 on elk not because its 6.5 but because its the CM and the velocities are low with the heavy bullets. If you want 140 grain bullets, look to the 270 wsm or plain 270. For hunting, I think the 6.5 is basically the same as the 308 for energy and velocity comps. How far would one shoot ant elk with 308? I've seen vids of people doing it at much further distances than I would. [/QUOTE]
