    7.62 liked post by On thread : How does this fit In with the range of calibers
    I've actually got 5 6.5s altogether. 223 only shoots 45gr any good plus it just does nothing for me. Should of kept my 222 everyone has one of those rifles. Plus it's quite likely I like different...

    ....nope - not with any Sako's I've had..... and I agree with 25/08 IMP - they hold their value better than someone else's idea of what they wanted....at one point in time....

    Never had that issue with my carbon light. Second hand sako's will always hold there price better than a custom rifle. Sent from my CPH1903 using Tapatalk

    If you prefer a gun which is easy to shoot (low recoil) then honestly 6.5mm is the way to go, .260, 6.5cm, 6.5x55 etc. Energy retention, windrift, drop, penitration etc etc it just has so much going...

    As will a 308 or 7mm08 or 6.5 as long as you make good projectile selection and aren't trying to shoot at 1000. 7mm08 and 162 eld will go a long way

    I think the point he was making that ballistics/recoil, the medium 6.5 calibers have the 308 beat. All will kill medium game just fine at sensible ranges but the 6.5s will do so with less drift, drop...

    6.5 Creedmoor is a cartridge - 6.5 (.264) is a "caliber " so, you are telling me that anything .264 is better at killing game (or a few million people) than .308 Winchester....... be fair to say I...

    you said longest shot has been 410 yards.......the humble .308 or mighty poohseventy would do that all day long with one hand tied behind back....sometimes I reckon we overthink shit.
