Long long ago I thought a 6.5 on a semi blown out 270/30-06/280 case would be the best trophy mule deer, sheep cartridge of all time. I know it won’t be any better than a slightly long throated 270 but decided to scratch that old itch when a pal got the reamer and dies made up.

When I first had that thought there weren’t the great bullets that are made today. I could spend a fortune on worldwide hunting with it and a 9.3-62 or 375.
