Finally spent some trigger time with the highly-touted 6.5 CM.
I have to say my first impression is that the recoil is substantially more than I was expecting for such a small round. I was expecting something slightly more than my .243, but this thing reminds me of my .308 with full loads.
I've shot a lot of rifles, from 7.62x39 to 6.5 Swede to 7x57 to .243 to 7mm-08 to .308 and above.
Am I crazy or does the 6.5 CM have recoil that is more than you expected?
