Somebody really needs to check their grammar before they post an article.

I reload all calibers I own. I also buy surplus Ammo in bulk for the time when the SHTF. (My choice currently was the now depleted Greek 30-06 in enblock clips) I’m not an AR guy. Neither am I opposed.
If I was an AR guy I’d buy up cases of surplus of .223/5.56 ammo I could get my hands on. (People successfully take down deer with the .223. I use .30, .35, .45 calibers for deer. They tend to anchor them well for me)

When and if the 6.5 becomes the standard round, then that would change my acquisition trends.

Good grief. I bet everyone who thinks the .223 isn’t enough for deer has never even taken a poke with one.

My take-away from this article is that I have low “sectional density”.

Thanks :/

The 6.5mm Creedmoor is typically compared to the 7.62mm. Why are they comparing it to 5.56mm?

Another stupid comparison between two completely different classes of rounds.

If it goes bang and hurls a piece of lead at hundreds of feet per second, it will do for a home defense round.
