The point of this non-serious thread is to just poke a little fun at the 6.5’s. I don’t want to ruffle any feathers. Anyone else think we are suffering from 6.5 overload? I believe the 6.5 x 55 and .264 are the real deal and most of the newcomers are meant to give a more “modern” flavor, etc but are not really that much better. I think most of the 6.5’s were developed to sell more guns and very expensive ammo. I mean how do you choose between 6.5 Grendel, 6.5 PRC, 6.5 Creedmore, 6.5 Wby Rpm, 26 Nosler, and other newcomers? Me, I am holding out for the new 6.5 Schmidt Rubin Neidermayer “Improved” when it comes out. Or better yet I think I’ll just keep my old 30-06, 7x57 and 243. I think that’ll cover pretty much everything.
