The 264 win Mag is ballistically the same and I've had good results with Barnes X Bullets in 40gn and 100gn. It is a good general purpose rifle as the 100gn Barnes explode rabbits and are very accurate and the 140gn X should be adequate for anything I'm likely to strike south of Katherine. Ive shot two chital stags, and 30+ goats with the 100gn X and am yet to recover a projectile. I get a genuine 3500fps with the 100gn.

The recoil is surprisngly light, I shoot off a bipod with a loose grip, like a proper varmint rifle.

I'm looking for a 6.5x68 barrel for my mauser 66 to replace the 270 barrel, although the difference in performance will be minimal.
