Did it leave a mark?
Sure did, out to a grand. We were shooting some old drawers, which made spotting the hits easy and hard at the same time!
'Taint hard! Spotting scope!
I got a spotting scope big enough to see other planets!
Like Uranus?
A feller could probably load 3 Grundel cases to capacity with what a single .300 Win Mag takes, as a starting load!
A .300 will definitely reach well over 2 grand, while the little Grundy will be stretched to its limits at half that!
Figure a .300 will toss a 130 gr Pill at a lazy pace of 3200+ FPS! Smokin hot, it could hit 3500 if all the stars aligned and you held your tongue at just the right angle!
6.5s have had no staying power in the US. Id be ok if it stayed that way. Even when they tried to hide the metric with the .264 Win Mag, Americans were smart enough to see the deception.
I know, RightHater.
I know, Right
Actually, Americans are so worked up over absolute velocity that actual Ballistic superiority of the 6.5 doesn't even matter, so the 6.5 sits mostly unused! And the argument of metrics doesn't work ether, how do you "splain the 7 mm chamberings?
