[QUOTE="Kurtr, post: 198620, member: 194"] [COLOR=#CCCCCC]I[/COLOR][COLOR=#000000] just started shooting the 6.5 creedmoor less than a year ago. In that time the rifle has taken 5 caribou alone only 1 of those caribou was inside 200 yards and 4 of them were beyond 300 yards with the furthest two at 450 and 470. Zero issues at all. I would use either with confidence. Pick whatever you want. The 6.5 is good for well beyond 400 yards. Both will work great shoot the one you like better. I wouldn't let a extreme remote grizzly bear chance steer you towards a .308 over a 6.5 if you are favoring a 6.5. I have seen a number of grizzlies killed with 243 and 308s in the past and this one here died this year to a 6.5 well beyond the suggested 400 yard limit:[/COLOR] [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/3Gkj7o4.jpg[/IMG] Here is what i found i know he has a whole topic on the barret but i cant find it right now [/QUOTE]
