    Greetings 6.5 CRD, The differences between the three barrel lengths is about what I would expect or a loss of around 20 to 25 fps per inch down to 18 to 20 inches and rather more below that. All are...

    you are right more deer shot in NZ with the 303 than any other calibre and many with full jacket army ammo - its what they had - and no scopes back in those days - but I bet they had those old...

    The issue is that the loading is biased the 270Win has another 10 grains of powder capacity and will push a Nosler 150 LRAB at over 3050 fps with Norma MRP or Re26. Which puts it up against 6.5 PRC...

    I reckon the 6.5 caliber is the ideal choice for NZ hunting conditions with the possible exception of Wapiti in Fiordland or longer rage shooting in the Southern alps. I shot the 6.5x55 for many...
