Carmichael is really in a tailspin these days. Most recently his putrid piece on the 270 and now this back patting drivel.

Any of you with much experience with the other 6.5's will see how anemic the velocities he reported for them to shore up his purported wildcat.

I think the guy is very knowledgeable and a good target shooter, but has one serious ego problem!

He is the first mainstream gunwriter to write about this particular wildcat as far as I can remember though and I guess he feels like that gives him bragging rights. He thinks he invented the 260 Rem as well.

Oh well, I guess those of us with 264 mags and 6.5-284's are relegated to shooting sparrows in our backyards as they are good for much else...
