True, and in a world of theoretical ballistics there may be no advantage for the 6.5s. But when inconvenient realities (e.g., recoil of heavier bullets in equally light rifles impinging on soft human shoulders lying prone for long range shots) lighter bullets with equal BCs have an advantage IMHO. This is the main reason that 6.5s have displaced larger calibers in target shooting, cumulative effects of repetitive recoil - again, advantage lighter bullets IMO.
