Federal 6.5 Backcountry?

[diverc18]

I don’t know about you guys, but I’m more excited about the 153tmk being available in factory ammo than the velocity gain since I don’t reload and live in a state where you can’t order/ship ammo. I definitely not sad about the extra velocity gain either though lol. I may or may not have already sent my barrel to be chopped because of it.

Margin of error for a young shooter. The whole discussion was initially based on a 12 year old...and the 6.5Creedmore bunnies turned it into something about them...as adults, who have hunted for years and probably killed several big game animals.

How much energy is required to make up for each inch of miss in this “margin for error”? I assume there is some initial requirement to make up for the .022” additional miss one accepts for not shooting a more appropriate adult sized cartridge?

It has everything to do with a 6.5CM being in inappropriate for elk hunting until now

Are we really beating this dead horse again?
Its been proven, with pictures and necropsies that elk have fallen to much smaller calibres than 6.5 creed.
