I am trying to get my hands on the Savage Lightweight Hunter in 6.5 Creedmoor for my general purpose hunting rifle. I was given a 6.5x55 SE for a gift, but its an old rifle and I want something I can load hotter rounds in. I have never met anyone else who hunts with any of the 6.5mm rounds. Anyone on here use such a thing, and have any experiences to share?
260 rem mod 7 used 100gr speer
5 whitetails in Minnesota
3 mulies in Wyoming
6 mulies in South Dakota
Used this for three years shots were from 40 yards to 300
This package hit animals like the hammer of Thor
6.5-284 Douglas barrel on a savage 110 use 140 speer
same affect proven to 400 yards comfortable to 500 yards
6.5x55 tekia my favorite love this thing.
I want to be able to leave my nephews I hunt with a 6.5 of some kind
