thank you for your imput on this.they now have a 338 rpmout i see that seams from what i see is a twin to the 338 winchester magnum only on that 6.5 case.i like that they use the 06 .47333 bolt face myself. for there our mor of that action types put there and little modafacation may be needed if a person went that route on builing a rifle . my thoughts only.

any one have thoughts on this new 6.5 cartrige on big game

i have a place to hunt that is on a p[ower line.just got acces to it.that max shot will be at 600 yard as far as i can see on it. was looking at the 240 for the gun to hunt there.i like the caliber because it is 6mm and i was thinking it would reach out that far
13
am looking at the berger 105 grain bullets.it is said that they are good to 1800 fps to expand on game .my j b ballistic chart shows that at 700 yards.nowe that is a far pice i know but if gun and you can make the shot what are your thoughts on this.
