[QUOTE="AFraser, post: 1408869, member: 45498"] I agree with Prieto9000, that the only flaw in a very fair comparison is the use of 140gr bullets at 2560 for the 6.5 Creedmoor. The norm is more like 2700, so in fact to restate his conclusion, it's a "draw" on ballistic performance across all three bullet weights. The real differences are: [LIST=1] [*]Recoil - which isn't just about the sensation, it directly affects most people's ability to shoot accurately. The short action cartridges win on that. [*]Sectional density/penetration. The 6.5 is marginally better than both the larger calibres. [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
