6.5's are a fad. They'll go the way of the pet rock and the lava lamp. Definitely get the 7MM-08.
I was in the same dilemma a couple months ago...have a thread on here somewhere...went 6.5 and love it...that gun can flat out shot. That being said I'm still going to buy a 7-08.... cause, well, why not.
I'm with highside, I avg 2720 with factory ammo from 22 barrel. Incredibly accurate and lighter recoil than a 7-08 IMO.

Got one for me and one for the boy @MTBvenisonCan't beat a new rifle for $200 after rebateStill looking at optics, but what factory ammo are you running? I plan to try a few types, but experience helps with my search.Thanx,
My hand loads are 143gr ELDX with 42gr of RL-17 and they shoot great.

I was only teasing when I said the 6.5 is a fad. Both are great chamberings. Merry Christmas, one and all!!!!!
