Is the 6.5 legal everywhere?
In culling Elk in Wyoming it was determined that the 220 Swift was the fastest slayer of Elk. I know a guy that killed a Grizzly circa 1990 with a 22-250. Jack O'Connor also wrote about seeing a Grizzly dropped in it's track with the 22-250.
Aren't you always touting the 77 SGK in the 223 ?
I don’t tout the .223 and 77 gr tmk, that’s the rokslide special, preferably in a Tikka with swfa scope in sports match rings.
6.5 Grendel does decent varmint work also but we’re 18 deep and 7 Alberta species on big game now so I can speak on it. Only .223 I had maybe shot coyotes and paper with it but figure if gonna burn powder in that level I’d rather big game legal for more versatility so it was a short affair. No regrets moving to Grendel, it punches well above its weight for powder burned. It’s legal in far more places, seems to be lots of nothing smaller than .224 restrictions around.
