Re: What's the best light double rifle cartridge for NA big game
|
Of the listed cartridges I'd choose the 38-55
As noted above, the 6.5x53r is a honey with the 160gr bullets.
Low pressure and amazing penetration with ultra-high B.C.
WDM Bell took over 1000 elephant with the little 6.5 before he switched to the 7mm
I would love a light slim little double rifle in 6.5x53r
Cheers
