New 6.5 Man Bun

[TNRifleman]

I am not partial to any one chambering and honestly probably lean towards long action cartridges more than anything but I just haven't shot a 6.5CM yet that wasn't stupid accurate.

Toda was First time out with the Bergara Wilderness Carbon Ridge in 6.5 CM. I picked it up Wednesday, took it home, ran a patch through the barrel, took it out of the stock for a quick wipe down, put it back together and mounted a Tract Tekoa in Warne rings. 3 shots got me on at 50 and I shot two groups at 100 with Hornady black which both came in around .75" or so. Switched over to 147 gr ELD M and she shined. Literally less than 15 shots down the tube and this thing is a hammer.

My definition of stupid accurate and yours are a little different but my B-14 is pretty impressive. It loves the Hornady Black also. I'm going to shoot some Federal Fusion in it next week as that has become my preferred hunting ammo and I have more of that on hand. I love Hornady Black as hunting ammo also.

The Hornady black is great. I have a heavier barrels Bergara that shoots the Black the best out of anything. Nice when you find the least expensive ammo to shoot the best. Let me know how the Fusions do. It's a great hunting bullet but I haven't shot any in awhile.

Will do!

Very nice group.

I told you that when mine comes in this week, it will forever be referred to as the 264 Bleedmore...same thing as the 6.5 Creedmoor but without the man bun.

We will get yours shooting like this for sure.

I like that. I'm going to steal it.

The Hornady line of 6.5 CM ammo has shot so well out of my RPR that it's hard to handload rounds that are much more akrit.

I held one of these and one in 6.5 PRC a few weeks ago and fighting the urge to buy one but think I'm fighting a losing battle. These pics don't help. Lol.

I have the same gun. I absolutely love it. It shoots the fusions 140 grain amazingly well. Better than I can shoot.

 

[tpgarrett21]

I like the 6.5 round myself... have a Tikka CTR in it i need to actually shoot but my Thompson center venture seems to do great... and as others have said, it to liked the hornady black, and does well with the 143 ELDX. but I been dying to shoot my Bergara B14 in 7mm-08 and tune it in

 

[Gravey]

Nice setup and shooting. You posting all these bergaras had me curious and I picked one up last time I was in Louisville. Couldn't tell you the model but it was sweet.
