Sure, but the 6.5 will definitely do the trick.  I personally shoot a 7mm mag and load 168 berger vld hunters and have had very good performance out of them.  Wife drew here ND Elk tag for E3 so if I have time this summer I'm going to see if I can get a berger to shoot well out of the 6.5.  If not, I have no worries at all about using the 143 eld-x</p></blockquote><p></p>
