When I had to switch to left handed shooting I picked up a 6.5 CM Tikka T3x lite and put a 3x9 4200 on it. An employee didn't have a rifle at all, and I didn't have time to hunt it, so I handed it to him to sight in and hunt with. Handed him a box of Hornady Whitetail ammo and off he went.
Came back a bit later and was a little bit non-plussed. He'd shot the first three shots for group, under an inch, made the correction on the scope to get to zero, and fired three more into an inch group, right where it was supposed to be.
He'd never had a rifle that shot in the same spot twice, and never had a scope that moved reliably where it was supposed to. Could not believe you could just buy a rifle and a scope and be ready to hunt in six shots. It's been bloodied since, and all clean one shot kills.
For whatever that's worth, but I think the 6.5 CM seems to be, indeed, the "easy" button.
