    6.5 Creedmoor on Elk?

    I have no issue with recoil, just don’t see any reason it would work better than my .308 did, my .270 does, 6.5 cm or prc. Or 7mm-08 for that matter.

    18.5” Kimber Hunter .270 !!!!

    I have been going back and forth cutting my .270 Fieldcraft, especially since I have a 6.5 prc 18” being built but I think I will. All accounts it seems to maintain velocity better than most.
