LT.Smoke Posted December 20, 2015 Report Share Posted December 20, 2015 What long range forum is that? Wasn't a long range forum just a gun forum...

n8ball2013 Posted December 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2015 Most guys who shoot long range have gone to 260 Remington and 6.5 creed more etc. the 308 is more 6-800 yards tops.. 300 win mag isn't much fun to shoot. Of course the big bopper 338 and 50s are still there too THERE IS NO BUILD LOG! 1998 Chevy Silverado ext cab Alpine CDA-9887 4 Team Fi 15s 2 Ampere Audio TFE 8.0 2 Ampere Audio 150.4 3 Digital Designs CS6.5 component sets Dual Mechman 370XP Elite alternators inbound! 8 XS Power d3400 6 XS power d680 Second Skin Stinger Tsunami Wiring Sky High A Real Voltmeter not a piece of shit stinger.

Of course the big bopper 338 and 50s are still there too I wonder why the CreedMoor is so popular... Isn't a 6.5 a fairly small round? 6.5 is a .264" diameter bullet that is 100gr on the low end and 140gr on the high end in comparison a .308 is .308" in diameter and 155gr on the low end and in some special applications as heavy as 200gr on the heavy side. The 6.5 in it's loaded configuration is still at a Short Action length, so a simple barrel swap gave people a whole new rifle as the bolt face is the same on the 6.5 as the .308. The 6.5 blows the .308 in its ballistic superiority. The 6.5 can achieve .300wm trajectory without the the recoil. This is all well and good as long as the mass of the 6.5 is enough to tackel the task. In the case of target shooting, it doesn't take a heavy bullet to kill paper Rolex you sicken me.

ROLEXrifleman Posted December 21, 2015 Report Share Posted December 21, 2015 Bullet construction. it all comes down to the bullets BC ( ballistic coefficient) When a bullet is more aerodynamic it doesn't matter it's size. That's like 4 cylinder engines of today making more HP than V8's of the past. It's all about technological advancements and their application to particular areas Rolex you sicken me.
