    The 6.5 only had factory "Superformance" ammo (Superformance my arse!) chronied at 2500fps, 140SST - only left a decent dent on a plate at 165, barely marked it at 275. The .260 with 130 Sierra Gameking at 2900fps nearly got through at 165 and left a decent crater at 275, the 7mm08 with 140 Nosler BT's nearly got through at 165yds but only left a crater at 275. Next time the 6.5 will have a full house load, have 140 VLD's and 140 AB's going 2800.
