Thread: 6.5CM craze

In its defence, it IS a very accurate round. Nobody seems to have issues with it doing well under MOA goups. Look up how it came about, interesting story.
On most actions it is easy to "load them long" it comes off the shelf with some very accurate loads as well.
Is it any better than other short action 6.5's ....nah its just another arrow in the quiver.
Yes you can get better ballistics etc from an AI version of 260 etc but then you arent getting "off the shelf" accuracy.
Its generated a lot of sales and interst in reloading too....... and that aint a bad thing.

If its not performing on game then that is down to projectile choice for the job at hand.
Having had / have both 260 and CM there isnt much between them I would happily use either interchangably ( is that a word )
