Agree - sometimes they can be a bear to get to feed.

Your 6.5x57IMP sounds like a wonderful dear, bear, moose, elk rifle.

1.5" at 300yards is excellent. I tested my #3 (Shilen bl.) weight .257 Robert's IMP at 300 meters on our in-town range many years ago, before the range was shortened to 200 meters.

With 120gr. Horandy HP's running 3,199fps MV, I managed to put 5 rounds into 1.99". I was shooting with my buddy Keith, that day - WOW - 1984, maybe?

The IMP's will work fairly well in good rifles, but of course, so do the standard rounds.
