Everybody seems to use the heavier 6.5 bullets, except me. I use 120 gr Nosler BTS, and for a few years used the 100 gr BTs. Both worked great on deer and hogs, but neither exited the hogs. If I was gonna hunt moose, I would step up the bullet weight.
The lighter bullets give me a flatter trajectory. Sort of like a ‘270 Light’, with a 120 gr bullet near 3000 fps instead of the 270’s 130 gr bullet at 3000 fps.
