[JJ-65]

Horses are best utilized as glue.

They also make the best coyote bait around.

Don't need no stinkin' rifle. Give me a battle pug any day. Problem is, there won't be any meat left over.

Only if you can vouch that the guy could handle one. A battle pug with blood lust would give a Walking Dead the willies.

I ate some young brumby backstraps wrapped in bacon and also in a stew. It was OK, tasted about like anything else and better than some. I'd pass on a miled out pasture ornament though. Dogs gotta eat too.

I'll accept donations for bear bait; eerrr I mean offer a retirement home where cherished nags can live peacefully for the rest of their lives.

Holy cow there sure are a bunch of sensitive types on CGN today!

Can't we have a bit of humor anymore?

I thought it was hilarious!

Had horse on occasion back in the day & it weren't to shabby when seasoned right. Dr. Ballard's canned dog food was horse based stuff back then as well.

Lot of trashing the Vanguard...True Weatherby or not, its a solid action that performs, and is almost on its own in this day of accu triggers and plastic shrouds...

I'd have no shame carrying a Sako or Sauer made Weatherby...

[hunter-4-life]

Has anyone read or seen anything else about this round?? Wouldnt mind doing a little bit more research on it but cant seem to find any more info

 

[Dogleg]

You can find plenty about the 6,5 STW that'll give you something to read about while you're waiting. Everything has been done before, nothing is new.

This new cartridge, and more specifically, it's loaded ammuntion - is laughable

140gr A-Frame @ 3395 fps drops 20" more @ 800 yards than the 142gr ABLR load in the 26 Nosler - even worse is the wind drift, 49" vs 28" for the 26N 142ABLR!!!. Bullet expansion with the A-Frame is unreliable below 2100 fps impact, which should be around 600 yards in the new Weatherby. On the other hand, 142gr ABLR will expand down to 1300 fps/1650 yards. And do we really expect a Swift A-Frame to provide sufficient accuracy in a Weatherby MarkV rifle to make hits at 600 yards? The 6.5-300 Wby w/ Wby ammo = LOL
