I see constant bitching online about the 6.5. Mostly the creedmore. Word to you, the 6.5 is one of the best calibers there is for deer. If you are having “trouble” with that caliber, it’s not the bullet, it’s your piss poor shooting, not the bullet.
I have killed deer from the .243 up to the .30 Caliber and every thing in between. The 6.5 is the most accurate bullet of all the deer calibers (prove me wrong) made.
Sorry for the rant but dang, just learn to shoot!!
